Answer to the super tough question on Saturday's "TEST"

The Eiger is a mountain in the Alps of Switzerland. The Nordwand (German for "north wall"), is the spectacular north face of the Eiger. It towers over 1,800 m (5,900 ft) above the valley in the Bernese Oberland. Since 1935, over fifty climbers have died attempting the north face, earning it the German nickname, Mordwand, or "murder face", a play on the face's real German name Nordwand.


Regarded even today as one of the most formidable challenges in mountaineering, it was first climbed on July 24, 1938 by Anderl Heckmair, Ludwig Vorg, Heinrich Harrer and Fritz Kasparek of a German-Austrian group.
