First, I'd shoot the id10t that built it that way.
Next, I'd bolt a cross arm of some kind up there so you'll have something to
stand on when you move from one leg to the other.

Looks like someone was not paying attention when they installed it. You
just gotta get balls of steel and slide over. Down one cross member and
up another. We do it all the time.
BTW: Be careful... :-)

Hi,
I am looking for some advice on the proper climbing technique for a new
tower we just installed on. Over the past 10 years, I have climbed
hundreds of towers including free standing, guyed, 40ft to 120ft without
any problems or fears. However this new tower is much more difficult. I
believe it's a Rohn 200ft free standing tower with 3 legs. The issue is
there are only foot pegs on one leg up to the 80ft level... then the pegs
start on another leg and go up from 80ft to the top. Getting from one leg
to another at the 80ft level is the challenge. As you can see from the
picture, the gap from the top brace to the bottom brace is almost 10feet
in the center (I am 6'1").

Anyone have any suggestions on a better way to accomplish the leg to leg
movements across the braces?
Thanks,
Travis
