@Himanshu: That is easy for any boy scout. :-) Tie the rope at the top of the tower. Then tie a sheepshank knot of a comfortable length in the rope and cut the middle strand inside the knot. Climb down the rope to the peg and tie the other end of the rope onto the peg. Then, while standing on or hanging from the peg, shake the upper rope to release the sheepshank knot. The upper end will fall down and you can climb the rest of the way down.
