BC if you are on Paul's facebook page take a look. One of his friends lives close to the spire and said it fell off.

Mike M - The Rabbit Ear Spire has fallen down. Last year if I remember right? That photo you posted makes the Taku Towers look good

Was going to climb a very short mini-cobra-esque spire at a campsite above the willows in beef basin as we were going to set up camp. I just leaned on it and the whole thing started rocking. I just could stop thinking that I would tip it over and it would get filmed and I would be public media shamed. I left it as is but that thing is coming down soon. Hopefully not on an unsuspecting camper.
