The experience from Solo climbing shapes the mental preparedness of our employees
How do you react, when your safety line is cut, when the “acts of God” apply to your body, hanging out a few meters off the wall, when you get your self in extreme situation at extreme heights, is what determines what kind of a vertical access expert you are. If you don’t have this experience in your childhood, then don’t expect to be efficient in a situation like that on the exterior walls at high altitude. Up there, the winds are so strong, the forces of nature so brutal, and you are feeling so lonely in the mercy of your knowledge and experience in dealing with such “delicate” situations, that only your reaction to action can determine the good come out of such events.
That is why at Eiger we appreciate and welcome experienced rock and ice climbers, who have enjoyed solo climbing and know not only how to ascend on walls with safety equipment and fall protection, but also to thrive on climbing up with the absence of these protective gear. Just leave the rest for us, and we will make a real life Spiderman of you.

REFERENCES:
Free solo climbing, also known as free soloing, is a form of free climbing where the climber (the free soloist) forgoes ropes, harnesses and other protective gear while ascending and relies only on his or her physical strength, climbing ability, and psychological fortitude to avoid a fatal fall. Free solo climbing should not be confused with general free climbing, in which gear is typically used for safety in case of a fall, but not to assist the climb.
Act of God is a legal term[1] for events outside of human control, such as sudden floods or other natural disasters, for which no one can be held responsible.
