El 24 de Julio de 1938 a las 4 de la tarde, los alpinistas alemanes Heckmair y Vörg junto con los austriacos Harrer y Kasparek demostraron algo que solo unos pocos consideraban posible. El ultimo problema de los Alpes fue resuelto, la pared norte del Eiger fue escalada. Después de 3 días de intensa escalada dominados por avalanchas de nieve y roca, sumadas a una fuerte tormenta, los 4 alpinistas alcanzaron con éxito la cumbre de 3.970 msnm del Eiger.
La Eigernordwand no es un obstáculo que pueda vencerse en un abrir y cerrar de ojos. Uno de los alicientes que ofrece es que la dificultad de la escalada asciende progresivamente desde los pasos difíciles, hasta los muy difíciles y los extraordinariamente difíciles. Los heleros son cada vez más empinados, las placas rocosas más verticales, y la roca en sí más descompuesta conforme uno se acerca a la cumbre. Asimismo, resulta más difícil encontrar protección y el esfuerzo del montañero se redobla debido tanto al efecto de la altura como al desgaste sufrido durante el tramo de pared escalado, lo que pone a prueba todos los recursos del alpinista.
La ascensión de la cara norte del Eiger (1938), junto con las otras caras norte más difíciles de los Alpes tales como el Matterhorn (escalada en 1931) o las Grandes Jorasses (1935), requirió un nuevo tipo de alpinismo. El alpinismo extremo como se le llamo entonces, que se valía de métodos artificiales para lograr ascensiones hasta entonces imposibles. Pero de después de que los intentos anteriores terminaron en tragedia, se encendió la polémica en torno a este nuevo estilo de escalar. De un lado La vieja generación y de otro los más jóvenes; los «caballeros» alpinistas del montañismo ortodoxo británico y suizo, secundados por los guías profesionales frente a los extremistas pertenecientes a la clase trabajadora alemana y austriaca (y, en menor medida, italiana).

Barking Mad by SmlAlwaysOriginal
7 parts Complete Mature
Third book after Jaime, and Angelica. Angelica's sons are grown and they are meeting their mate. He had an idea, that was all. He wanted to help his people as a whole. He didn't think he'd be the first to try it out. His life was turned upside down, but maybe that was a good thing. But how does he cope with mates that are more wolf then man? It's hard to have a relationship when your mates don't talk much. (Told from Blake and Andrews mates point of view.) Excerpt: Okay, I admit that this was my idea but, I didn't think that Alpha would send me. Yes, pack exchange would help to freshen packs. Blood, minds, get packs that were stagnant and stuck decades in the past to move forward. I recommended enforcers, warriors and Omega's, positions that would do the most good. I was none of those. I was just a random beta with barely the wolf to keep my position and not fall down a rank. But my alpha said that the other packs were not so keen on doing it. So he was going to lead by example. All known packs were put into a database by the council and random generators paired packs to exchange people. Since alpha wanted to lead, we were first to get paired. We got paired with a pack across the country. My flight out had been uneventful thankfully. Most of my things had been shipped, I had two suitcases of things I was wheeling toward the exit of the airport. Supposedly this pack had sent someone to pick me up. I'm almost to the door when I hear my name called.

20 parts Ongoing Mature
Aubrielle Baine was the first of her kind in a hundred and fifty years. A female pup born to a Primary Alpha Family, the werewolf ruling class directly descended from the ancient ancestors of werewolves, the Lycans. Unfortunately, the last alpha female was the reason two alpha males went to war for the first time and the wars didn't end when they died. Their diety the moon goddess cursed her own children preventing the birth of alpha females and the wolves from finding their fated mates. Enter Lysander Hunters, his father, like Alpha Baine, had been striving to unite the entire werewolf race and put a stop to the wars and the devastation they left behind, now the two are too dominant to submit and unite their packs which were the largest in the world. Alpha Baine also fears for his daughter's title and safety once he's gone. The only solution, have their heirs marry. Ander and Aubry are too dominant to inhabit the same space yet they have a responsibility to their packs and the survival of their race coupled with the disappointing betrayal of their parents' four years in the making scheme, tensions start to rise, but they are not all unpleasant. What happens when Ander suspects that his unexplanable attraction and overprotective actions to his mate was because the fated mate curse was also lifted at her birth and she was fated for him? As enemies threaten on all sides, will Ander come to fully understand his feelings as he does all in his power to keep his mate safe when her life is continuously threatend? And will Aubry trust her own growing feelings for her kind, thoughtful and affectionate mate and give in to what the future promises or will she succumb to her dominant nature and challenge him at every turn for his irritatingly overprotectiveness towards her? The fate of the entire werewolf race might just be hanging in the balance.
