Eiger dreams
Category: Opinion
So here I am at the eiger at last and it looks just as scary/amazing as last time. Only now I’ve got a haul bag full of currage and anough food for 10+ nights on the wall.
Carried in what felt like a 100kg sack close to the base and hopefully will get underway in the morning.
I sort of can’t wait!
A Mars Bar bar costs 60p. Were these words worth as much?
