The Wetterhorn is a mountain mass with three rocky summits of similar height, all rising from snow and
ice-covered slopes. The mountain poses magnificently for photographs, and is one of the most
often photographed mountains from the town of Grindelwald. Located just east of town, it is also one
of the most often climbed mountains in the Alps. It rises just north of the great trio of peaks, Eiger
(13,025 ft.), M-nch (13,448 ft.), and Jungfrau (13,642 ft.). The ascent of Wetterhorn is a mixed
climb on snow, ice and rock, and among its many climbers was Winston Churchill in 1894.
