Great thread. I have a 40 foot wooden extension ladder, and I am no longer able to deal with the weight.
I need to get to the gutters at 25 feet above ground. I am considering a fiberglass 28 foot ladder. This one is rated for 300 lbs. The next option seems to be 32 feet, but that one is all aluminum, and rated 1A which I think is less than the fiberglass.
Any ideas about which might weigh less -- that is an issue. Both are available from the local big-box home center. I guess I could try to pick them up to see which weighs less, but I would like some advance knowledge.
