There are two pillars that are 1 mile tall and 1 mile apart, and made out of solid, smooth metal.
You're standing on top of one of them.
There is nothing around either pillar.You have a rock, a twig, and an unlimited amount of rope.
How you get from one pillar to the second?

Card Membership - putting the power of factories in your hand.
Do you have to get to the top of the second pillar?

I'm a man.
the answer only depends on how big of a diameter the pillars have. they need to be skinny enough that you can move the rope up/down the pillar.
wrap the rope around the pillar and shimmy down, reverse the process on the other pillar.
can't find any good videos of it, but here's a crappy one kinda showing what i mean.
But I can change,
if I have to,
I guess...Edited Mon 13th Jan 11:32 [history]

I suggest waiting until continental drift brings the poles close enough that you can leap from one to the other.

Rock is sized such that you can carry it.
Yes, M57, you must reach the TOP of the other pillar.

Ozy - You must complete the task within your lifetime.
Amidon - Although your suggestion might make Ozy's only VERY VERY SLIGHTLY closer to possible, both solutions are still inaccurate.

So did weathertop get it? Use the rope to shimmy down, walk on over, use the rope to shimmy up?

Lumberjack climbing a smooth metal pole up (or even down) for 1 mile sounds impossible if not suicidal, so, I think we're still missing the answer... To which I am clueless.

In my mind, my pillars are 1 mile apart at their centers... Since they have a diameter of 1 mile each, however, their edges touch and I causally walk from one to the other! The rock, the twig and the rope keep me company on the walk. Since it's at least a mile high (from the ground) and possibly higher from sea level, I think I'm doing ok but altitude sickness could be a concern if the pillars were placed more then a mile above sea level. I have hiked (and acclimatized along the way) up to 3.1 miles above sea level before though, and was fine, but if I were abruptly placed 2+ miles up the body might not like that?
