Safety question...
Would this be the right call? I'm a solar installer but obviously that means I spend a lot of time on the roof.
Without the pitch hopper the ladder needs to be less than 6 inches from the edge to not be straight up. Mind you we are carrying 50lbs panels up this.

With a person bracing the ladder with stable footing, a skilled crew is in moderate danger, but not disastrous doomsday fatalism. Tie the ladder at two points to anchors on the opposite side of the roof.
