Here the climbing gets more challenging as we follow the rocky ridge crest to the North Eigerjoch Up until this point the rock has given us enjoyable climbing on the fine gneiss of the Monch and the interior of the Bernese Oberland group. At the North Eigerjoch we leave the gneiss behind and cross over onto the limestone and shale of Eiger fame. Actually, the rock continues to be fairly good on the ridge crest, small hold, but lots of them. Our descent in normally by the South Ridge as well, though we may, on occasion, elect to descend the West Flank. We finish back at the Jungfraujoch rail station for the train ride to town, a raclette and a celebratory bottle.
