The Matterhorn, known as 'The Mountain of Mountains', is the most photographed mountain in the world. Now is a great time to climb this classic beauty.
The Matterhorn is an iconic mountain in the Alps, standing tall between Italy and Switzerland. It is a large, near-symmetric pyramidal peak in the Monte Rosa area of the Pennine Alps, and one of the highest mountains in the Alp. The Matterhorn, 14,692 ft., is the second highest peak on the European continent, toped by Mt. Elbrus,18,510 ft., in the Russian Caucasus.
The straight-up climbing took the team 5 hours to climb approximately 4,000 ft. to the summit, and 4 hours down to the safety of the Hornli Hut. Pattison recalled, "This is a very physically demanding peak, with extreme exposure throughout the climb. Unlike other mountains, this one required all four limbs to summit.”
