Eiger- North face

A blast from the past here. One of my January 1989 slide shots taken on skis, at sunset from Kleine Scheidegg, Wengen, Switzerland. I was reminded of this scene whilst photo-site travelling today. Some viewers here might remember this being in my Panoramio account too. A favourite spot for me, especially after reading the famous 'White Spider' (North face climb attempts) by Heinrich Harrer.

The Eiger North-face is an impressive rock face. It looks great in the warm sunlight.

Thanks Susanne. Indeed, I was always impressed with this awe-inspiring rock face towering above me here. The late sun was marvelous.

Cheers, Herb
