In den Schweizer Hochalpen

Felsen, Firn und Gletscher

A mountaineering tour on a glacier in the Alps. The film follows a group of mountaineers as they leave the hostel. Then they climb up fixed ladders in snowy escarpments and reach the top of the glacier. The mountaineers, secured with ice axes and rope, progress through the ice and cross several hazardous crevassea. The group finally descend by the rocky cliffs.
