Welcome... The name of this web site is derived
from a spider shaped icefield high on the north face of the Eiger, a mountain that towers
above the town of Grindelwald, Switzerland. Heinrich Harrer wrote a book by the same
name that documents the first attempts on this alpine face. Harrer was a member of the
first team to scale the face. I developed this .sig containing a fictional quote that many
people ask me about...
"I'll
get the rope..." Anderl Hinterstoisser, North Face of the Eiger, July 19th, 1936...
Hinterstoisser,
a talented young climber attempting the first ascent, pulled in his rope after succeeding
in a daring traverse that opened up the route to the summit. Unfortunately, a horrific
storm blew in forcing a retreat but the traverse cannot be reversed without a rope in
place. All members of the party perished...
...it is now called the Hinterstoisser
Traverse
