The Alpine Tower

Nathan | June 26th, 2007

Like a giant game of pickup sticks, the fully constructed alpine tower lays on it’s side waiting to be stood up. It has been exciting and almost bizare to see the tower built sideways. Using a small crane the guys from ATI worked quickly to put the frame together. A day later the beast was fully outfitted with ropes, handholds, and lashings. In a few days an even bigger crane will roll up and stand the monster element upright.

About the course

West Virginia University has contracted Alpine Towers International (www.alpinetowers.com) to construct a multi-element high and low challenge course facility to be used for student education and development. Once completed, the challenge course facility will be one of the largest educational facilities of its kind in the state.

Follow along this summer as we work to prepare the site, construct the facilities, ready the grounds, and watch the challenge course come together!
