Eiger North Face HMG from Dan Goodwin on Vimeo.
A great little video of a recent conventional climb of the 1938 route in heavily snowed up conditions. (Please note, given increased rockfall due to climate change, most climbers opt for a Spring or Fall ascents these days.).
Of course, you can go to the Steep Edge Films website and watch SOLO by Leo Dickenson, which profiles Eric Jones and his first British solo of the north face, interspersed with re-creations of famous vignettes in eigerwand history. CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE TRAILER.
Then there is ALPS, the IMAX film version of John Harlin III book THE EIGER OBSESSION, as he finally tackles the mountain that had claimed his Father's life when he was a young boy. Available in DVD, spectacular videography, and an engaging story of a very special guided climb.
CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE TRAILER.
THE SWISS MACHINE about UELI STECK is awesome, and while the entire video from Sender Films is worth watching the YouTube segment on his Eiger speed solo is entrancing. CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE TRAILER.
Of course a quick Google search will direct you to videos like BECKONING SILENCE, NORTH FACE, EIGER SANCTION, OUT OF THE SHADOWS INTO THE SUN, and on and on ...
