Hamilton from Above!
 
While, I got up on the the newest development on the mountain. It was a perfect day for it too, great clear weather. Enjoy these never before seen shots of the Hammer. Can any of you guess what project im on top of?

I know where you took them from, but I cheated cause I've been there too :)

Good shots.

I love these escarpment stairs, I used the Chedoke stairs, 182 stairs. A total good workout. My legs kills me the next day though lol.

Wentworth stairs are 500 each way :s Nuts!!!
Of course going DOWN them is no work at all... except once you've reached the top, your legs feel like Jell-O anyway! hahaha

And totally... Olympia, IMO, is the nicest skyscraper in our city (at least in the top 5 tallest) sorry 100 Main... ur just too '70s

Cool pics!

How do you guys get into these places anyway? Just sneak in on weekends and nights? Don't they lock em up with security and all that?

You just go. Yah, sometimes they do lock em up. Sometimes there is security. There's also a chance you'll get caught, but really its up to your curiosity to keep you going. Just don't get overcome by nerves and act like you belong there. At the same time though, don't be a fool either.

People have got to get out and explore their world a bit more, theres more to life than the generic attractions that we are allowed to see. Can you see a view like the one in these pictures in too many other places? Not really.
