Such legends of climbing as John Salathé, Royal Robbins, and Warren Harding have immortalized their names in the granite of the valley.

From the surveys of geologists in the 1860 s to the "free speed" climbs of today, over 100 years of climbing history accompany a range of superb color landscape photos that echo the great traditions of the Ansel Adams and the Sierra Club large format books of the 1970s.

The Eiger Myth Compiled by Marco Bomio
The Eiger Myth Compiled by Marco Bomio Compiled by Marco Bomio, 3818 Grindelwald 1 The Myth «If the wall can be done, then we will do it – or stay there!” This assertion by Edi Rainer and Willy Angerer proved tragically true for them both – they stayed there. The first attempt on the Eiger North Face in 1936 went down in history as the most infamous drama surrounding the North Face and those who tried to conquer it. Together with their German companions Andreas Hinterstoisser and Toni Kurz, the two Austrians perished in this wall notorious for its rockfalls and suddenly deteriorating weather. The gruesome image of Toni Kurz dangling in the rope went around the world. Two years later, Anderl Heckmair, Ludwig Vörg, Heinrich Harrer and Fritz Kasparek managed the first ascent of the 1800-metre-high face. 70 years later, local professional mountaineer Ueli Steck set a new record by climbing it in 2 hours and 47 minutes. 1.1 How the Eiger Myth was made In the public perception, its exposed north wall made the Eiger the embodiment of a perilous, difficult and unpredictable mountain. The persistence with which this image has been burnt into the collective memory is surprising yet explainable. The myth surrounding the Eiger North Face has its initial roots in the 1930s, a decade in which nine alpinists were killed in various attempts leading up to the successful first ascent in July 1938. From 1935 onwards, the climbing elite regarded the North Face as “the last problem in the Western Alps”. This fact alone drew the best climbers – mainly Germans, Austrians and Italians at the time – like a magnet to the Eiger. -

1 Rural Affairs and Environment Committee
RURAL AFFAIRS AND ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE WILDLIFE AND NATURAL ENVIRONMENT (SCOTLAND) BILL WRITTEN SUBMISSION FROM DR ADAM WATSON Wildlife and Natural Environment (Scotland) Bill, consultation I request members of the Rural Affairs & Environment Committee to take the decisive action that is long overdue to end the widespread and increasing illegal persecution of protected Scottish raptors. Leading MSPs and Scottish Ministers in the previous Labour/Lib Dem coalition and the present SNP administration have condemned this unlawful activity, calling it a national disgrace. However, it continues unabated, involving poisoning as well as shooting and other illegal activities. Indeed, it has increased, as is evident from the marked declines in numbers and distribution of several species that are designated as in the highest national and international ranks for protection. In 1943 I began in upper Deeside to study golden eagles, which have now been monitored there for much longer than anywhere else in the world. I have also studied peregrines and other Scottish raptor species, and snowy owls in arctic Canada. This research resulted in many papers in scientific journals. An example was in 1989 when I was author of a scientific paper that reviewed data on golden eagles from 1944 to 1981. It showed the adverse effects of eagle persecution on grouse moors, in contrast to deer forests where the birds were generally protected or ignored by resident deerstalkers. Also it showed how a decline of such persecution during the Second World War, when many grouse-moor keepers were in the armed services, led to a notable increase of resident eagle pairs on grouse moors. -
Archaeology Development Plan for the Small Isles: Canna, Eigg, Muck
Highland Archaeology Services Ltd Archaeology Development Plan for the Small Isles: Canna, Eigg, Muck, Rùm Report No: HAS051202 Client The Small Isles Community Council Date December 2005 Archaeology Development Plan for the Small Isles December 2005 Summary This report sets out general recommendations and specific proposals for the development of archaeology on and for the Small Isles of Canna, Eigg, Muck and Rùm. It reviews the islands’ history, archaeology and current management and visitor issues, and makes recommendations. Recommendations include ¾ Improved co-ordination and communication between the islands ¾ An organisational framework and a resident project officer ¾ Policies – research, establishing baseline information, assessment of significance, promotion and protection ¾ Audience development work ¾ Specific projects - a website; a guidebook; waymarked trails suitable for different interests and abilities; a combined museum and archive; and a pioneering GPS based interpretation system ¾ Enhanced use of Gaelic Initial proposals for implementation are included, and Access and Audience Development Plans are attached as appendices. The next stage will be to agree and implement follow-up projects Vision The vision for the archaeology of the Small Isles is of a valued resource providing sustainable and growing benefits to community cohesion, identity, education, and the economy, while avoiding unnecessary damage to the archaeological resource itself or other conservation interests. Acknowledgements The idea of a Development Plan for Archaeology arose from a meeting of the Isle of Eigg Historical Society in 2004. Its development was funded and supported by the Highland Council, Lochaber Enterprise, Historic Scotland, the National Trust for Scotland, Scottish Natural Heritage, and the Isle of Eigg Heritage Trust, and much help was also received from individual islanders and others. -
Glen Strathfarrar 1757
Title: Plan of the lands in Glen StrathFarrar. This title is taken from Adams (1979); no title on photostat. National Archive of Scotland Ref: nil, but photocopy of Mather photostats deposited in Highland Council Archives, Inverness. Tel. 01463 220 330 ref: HCA/D670. View by appointment. Location of Original: thought to be Lovat Estate Office, Beauly, Inverness-shire. Adams described this plan, as well as six others of Lovat lands, as ‘wanting’, in his 1979 publication, but apparently no attempt has since been made to trace them. Surveyor, Date and Purpose: Peter May, 1757 (as per Adams 1979); compiled as a requirement of Annexation to the Crown for the Commissioner to the Forfeited Estates, following the Jacobite Rebellion of 1745. Associated References: Mather, Alexander S., 1970, ‘Pre-1745 Land Use and Conservation in a Highland Glen: An Example from Glen Strathfarrar, North Inverness-shire’, Scottish Geographical Magazine 86 (3), 159-69. Adams, I. H. (ed.), 1979, Papers on Peter May Land Surveyor 1749-1793, Scottish History Society, 4th series, vol. 15. Description: photostats of this map were taken c.1970 from the Lovat Estate copy by A. Mather, now (’04) Head of Dept., Geography Dept., Aberdeen University, for his article in Scottish Geographical Magazine 86 (3) (1970), on land use. Working copy is a photocopy of these, although Mather’s original photostats were needed to check certain letters (not indicated here). Thirteen overlapping A3 photocopies make up this map. Professor Mather’s numbering scheme has been adopted - i.e. from west to east they are 1a/1b, 2a/2b etc, with ‘a’ the upper part of the map, and ‘b’ the lower part. -
