Description
The Climb Up to Hell by Jack Olsen In one of the most infamous incidents in mountain climbing history, two teams of experienced climbers set out to conquer the treacherous north wall of the Eiger Mountain. The result was devastating, with only one survivor and a mystery that has endured for decades. The Eiger's mile-high north wall is considered the most dangerous climb in the world, due to its unpredictable weather conditions, disintegrating limestone surfaces, and continuously falling rock and ice. In 1957, two teams of climbers from Europe faced this challenge, but their fate was sealed from the start. This gripping account of daring adventure and heroic rescue offers a riveting insight into one of the most baffling mysteries in the history of mountain climbing.
