    Funnily enough I was walking past Monument on Saturday and wondered if you can get up top… this answers the question. Looks like vertigo vision

  • Urban Umbra replied

    I waited till, what I thought would be a quiet day, Tuesday, but it was ram jam packed from top to tail. Got some great views, even in the rain…
