  I climb my towers all of the time as I put up my own antennas.  When I go 
up the tower, I know exactly what is up there and how everything is 
arranged.  Being blind, I would never climb anyone else's towers as I would 
know anything about what is up there.  I climb my towers because of cost of 
paying someone else.  The last time I payed someone else to climb, it cost 
me fifty dollars every time the guy climbed the tower, I couldn't afford it. 
I do not suggest that other blind hams start climbing towers,  It is just 
something I do myself.  I have a very good climbing belt and have learned to 
carry the proper tools up the tower with me and this saves me lots of 
climbs..

Best wishes,
