A minimum 5 mile hike through rough hilly terrain will provide you with the only 4 Elevator towers on the planet. That's it. The rest are climbers.

it's not how many have elevators, it's how many have elevators that are operational? or can be made operational with macgyver like skills.

Technically incorrect. On 12 Jan 2008 one fell just south of me in AR. Now there is only 4. They're going quick, better get em while they last.

I'd gladly hike 5 miles to avoid climbing for hours!!!

the majority of my hikes are done in a harley-davidson F-150. i save my workouts for the initial 30ft climb to the elevator. Tongue
