Re: Fantastic

Thanks,
This is a small crop from a larger picture. I used the “One Step Photo Fix …” in Paint Shop Pro to increase the contrast.

Re: Fab

Thanks, glad you like it. Eiger shows a lot of faces – not only the north.

Re: Neat!

Thanks,
And it has quite a history. Since I read “The White Spider” many years ago it has been my favourite mountain. I feel privileged to have been standing up there.

Nice photo!

Beautiful light. It looks like there is a lot less snow than what I remember from the mid 1980S.

Re: Nice photo!

Thanks,

Conditions vary a lot. In 1996 it was much snow on the Mittellegi.
