Erich Vanis (October 4, 1928 - March 1, 2004) was an Austrian mountaineer and author, known for his contributions to ice climbing. He was a skilled furrier and earned the titles 'King of Ice Walls' and one of the 'Gray Eminences of Alpine Climbing'. His notable climbs include the Eiger North Face and many first ascents in the Monte Rosa and Mont Blanc regions. In later years, he faced knee problems after an ascent of Aconcagua, leading to a shift in interests towards paragliding. His mountaineering legacy remains influential.
