A rigid, unitary ladder is provided having one end configured to be attached to a powerline support tower after the ladder is dropped by helicopter to a lineman previously offloaded onto the tower. The ladder includes a first section which extends outwardly from the tower and a second section which extends at an angle at least equal to ninety degrees from an end of the first section to a base which is configured to rest on the powerline, the angle being defined between the undersides of the first and second ladder sections. The first section is of a length sufficient to space the base a distance from the tower which is beyond the flashover area around the tower.
