*gasp* @ Inco Superstack! EPIC!

Thanks! It was on my bucket list for a looong time.

Being that it is on top of the largest active nickel smelting operation in the world was quite the challenge.

Some info:
The Inco Superstack. with a height of 381 metres (1,250 ft), is the tallest chimney in Canada and the Western hemisphere, and the second tallest freestanding chimney in the world after the GRES-2 Power Station in Kazakhstan. It's base, at 115ft wide, is large enough to fit a small apartment building.

Climbing a 380 meter ladder is a killer lol, but worth the view at the top for sure!

Here an old video to give some perspective.

HOLY SHIT! No, I had not remembered that at all! That's too funny. Quite a coincidence. Maybe you left some sort of suggestion in the air for others to do the same as you and carry on tradition.

It wasn't the same broom though.

This year has been very challenging exploration-wise, especially because of the land border closed to Canadians.
This, added to the ton of work that is to organize the annual event in Montreal, i have not explored as much as id love.
