The Eiger

The Eiger , Bernese Oberland canton, Switzerland.
One of the most beautiful mountains I have ever seen. If you are a skier it is a must-go. The Eiger north face is legendary and has its place in the history of modern Alpinism.
Let me introduce: The legendary, dangerous and beautiful north face of the Eiger:
