The Jungfrau is one of the commanding summits in the Bernese Alps and towers over the Lauterbrunnen Valley at 13,642 feet. It sits close to the Eiger and access to it's imposing glacier can be had by taking a train that tunnels through the belly of the Eiger to the Jungfraujoch. The whole experience, from the train ride to the summit climb is mind blowing.

Wow, you made that look easy! The glaciers that flow down the valley below the Jungfrau are indeed enormous. 2 years ago I joined the groups that hike down the glacier, staying 1 night at the Konkordia hutte on the way. We hiked quickly for maybe 8 hours on the glacier and still managed to only cross maybe 2/3 of it. When you are out on it, it just seems to go on and on. Below the Konkordia hut it is supposed to be 900 metres thick (about 3,000 feet) as I recall.

When I was at Konkordia they had just build the new metal staircase, but had already had to put in a normal ladder to get to the staircase. The ice was melting that fast. This was in 1999, just after the horrible Galtur avalanche. We were the first group being able to go up again.

I always love these videos, and as an actual amateur I have learned a ton from this channel. But I have to question something in this one. On the rappel, the rope was run directly through the loop tied in the end of the fixed line. I know they say not to do that for safety, which isn't even my concern here; both ropes can easily handle the small amount of friction they may experience during the rappel. But when pulling your rap rope through, it's going to wear heavily on the fixed line. Wouldn't it have been better to leave a locking carabiner on the fixed line to avoid wear for anyone else who needs to follow?

amazing videos! really entertaining and great selection of summits. as a german/austrian guide the only thing i can criticise is the mix between roped up / and not being roped up. on a glacier covered in snow you should always be (that is not a debate) , and on that climbing sections you kinda shouldnt to avoid a complete tumble of the entire group. nevertheless, good effort!

Stayed in the tiny village of Gimmewald, just down the mountain from Murren, the birthplace of downhill skiing. Just an incredible, amazing place. I guess none of you were up for tackling the North face of the Eiger? So stoked to see the MA in this area! Love the video- I’d give it 1k likes if I could. Cheers!
