Did you have saftey lines and how strong was the urge to jump?

In the past 10 years, "Fall Arrest" regulations and guidelines have changed A LOT, which is a good thing. At the time, we weren't wearing any sort of harnessess, but I wasn't in jeopardy. The lights are mounted inside those cylinders, which are inside the guywire fence.
The first day we were tip toeing around carefully, but by the last day, the novelty had worn off and we just went about our business. It was never that windy, because they wouldn't let us up there if the weather was bad. Interestingly, it would be windy on one side, but not the others. Also, you couldn't hear the traffic at all.
One day a big Army transport plane buzzed the tower, and on another we could see a storm front moving in (at our level) so we got the hell out of there. The underground complex was also pretty cool; kind of like being in the Death Star
OK two last pics:
(Note the undeveloped rail lands to the west)
