Dear Sirs

Jeff Lowe, world famous climber and alpinist from Oregon USA is visiting Grindelwald for his new film production. No one else than one of the current world's best climber and alpinist Ueli Steck from Switzerland will act as main actor and alpinist in his film "Eiger Song".

The route Metanoia in the Eiger Northface will be filmed, which Jeff Lowe soloed in a first ascent in winter 1991. In the past years many well-known alpinists have tried to repeat this very demanding and extremely difficult route, but so far no one has succeeded.

The film will get a special characteristic because of the live-filming of this ascent. During the turning operation Ueli Steck will try to climb in a second attempt the route in order to bring this extraordinary sports performance of such a route in the Eiger Northface closer to the viewer.

On Wednesday, April 7, 2010 we are pleased to invite you to the press conference at the foot of the Eiger Northface on the "Kleinen Scheidegg". There you will have the opportunity to get more information about the Film "Eiger Song" of Jeff Lowe and ask your questions directly to Jeff Lowe and to the best alpinist of the world at present Ueli Steck.

Press conference:

Date: April 7, 2010

Location: Kleine Scheidegg, Restaurant Bahnhof

Time: 14 hours
