Multi ladder job

Spotted in San Diego, California, home of the aerial work platform, an all ladder canopy installation job at the Draft Republic.

The team of men with at least four ladders were installing a large canopy, which they seemed to have managed without any form of lifting equipment, but looks as though they came close to a team member or two from time to time. It also does not look particularly efficient in terms of man days.
