Terror peak at 4078 meters (13379 ft), is one of the most difficult mountains to climb in Berner Oberland - Switzerland. Schreckhorn is a steep rock peak, surrounded by ice. It is the high point on a long, narrow craggy ridge that joins the Upper and Lower Grindelwald glaciers. There are several minor peaks on this ridge as well. Schreckhorn is the most difficult of all 4,000 meter peaks in the European Alps, primarily due to the 2000-foot rock tower that marks its summit.

Were you thinking of climbing it? It looks pretty frightening to me. Great capture.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Woah, that thing makes our mountains look like pimples. I can see why people would want to attempt the climb so I better leave before I get any silly ideas.

There are three colours, Ten digits and seven notes, its what we do with them that’s important.
