- Standard RegularThe first ascent of the Eiger was made by Swiss guides Christian Almer and Peter Bohren and Irishman Charles Barrington, who climbed the west flank on August 11, 1858.
- Standard Regular ItalicCesare Maestri claimed in 1959 that he and Toni Egger had reached the summit and that Egger had been swept to his death by an avalanche while they were descending.
- Standard MediumWith the increasing number of climbers, steps had to be taken to make the approach to the mountains a little less complicated and exhausting.
- Standard Medium ItalicThe countries with the greatest alpine territory are Austria (28.7% of the total area), Italy (27.2%), France (21.4%) and Switzerland (13.2%)
- Standard BoldSilence (9c) is about 45 m long, curving up the cave wall and along part of the underside of its roof.
- Standard Bold ItalicThe top of the mountain often has a mushroom of rime ice, formed by the constant strong winds, increasing the difficulty of reaching the actual summit.

Typeface information
GT Alpina proudly calls itself a workhorse serif, but delights in playing with the very meaning of that concept. It reaches into the grab bag of typographic history to resurrect shapes some may falsely see as too expressive, resulting in a meticulous family melding these distinct shapes with a pragmatic execution.
