Daring Aerial Resupply Reaches Parched Crane-Sitter on Caltrans Tower In an action combining daring, danger and comedy, Earth First! activists and Little Lake Defenders succeeded in putting a climber atop the second wick drain driver, and stringing a traverse rope to the crane-sitter who had been without food and water for a week. The bold action was carried out in broad daylight late Wednesday afternoon. To get to the tower, the climber had to cross a wide belt of bare earth, guarded by 2 CHP vehicles, whose drivers were preoccupied with getting their vehicles out of the wetlands muck. Later, in spite of floodlights and guards, the climber delivered his life-saving supplies and vanished into the night.
