That would work in some places for sure. I bet they don't want a ped or
hand hole in the corn field though.

Run it down the pole and splice in a ped or hand hole.

I've been using a Werner work platform. They're actually made to stand
on, but provide me with some work space. Various manufacturers make
ladder-mount splicing workstations, most are outrageously expensive
though.

Do you mount a work table on the ladder?

It isn't my favorite way to do things, but it is workable. If
you're going to need to do it in inclement weather, I would
probably purchase a strand-mountable ladder tent - providing
steel strand is present.

I cannot drive a bucket truck to some of these places.
Sometimes you'd
be crushing a corn field to get there or other times it's
brushy and
untamed and you couldn't drive anything less than a forestry
mulcher
through it.
How do you equip someone for fusion splicing out in the bush
like that?
If we build on this route, we'll have to be able to splice
out there at
some point. Do you clear a space on the ground and set up a
tent or do
you climb the pole and set up an aerial tent and lash a work
table to
the pole?
