I think you’re referring to how it was originally constructed, with expert climbers scaling the cliff and having to stand on each other’s shoulders to get to the top. But the article says that was to establish “a road” without any indication of what that is or how one uses it today.
It’s accessible only by helicopter. No one has ever lived there, so people only go there when it needs maintenance. It’s been automated from the “start” which was delayed due to the war.
How does one get to it? I see a helipad but it says it was constructed originally without one.
Apparently you just had to climb it!

I guess it is chains. They are mentioned specifically in Wikipedia. It could have been chain ladder.
Catapult?
Parachute?
both?
Yes, I’m wondering if helicopter is the only access currently, as well. That’s wild.
