Volumes 39 to 58 1927 to 1952 INDE >. TO THE ALPINE JO NAL VoIs. 39 to 5 1927 to 195 Printed by SPOTTISWOODE, BALLANTYNE &: CO. LTD. LONDON & COLCH~STE 1954 PREF.AC 1 THE present volume carries the Index to t e"ALPI E JOURNALfrom Volumes 39 to 58, covering the years 1927 to 195 . The basis of the Index was the indices 0 the co ponent volumes, but brought into conformity with the In ex to olumes 16 to 38, published in 1929. The pro}Josa} for a continuation of th conso dated Index was put forward late in 1949 and continue to b urged until, in December 1950, Mr. D. 1!'. O. Dangar un ertook to make a start. Ultimately, the great bulk of the work fell 0 him nd proved to be much more arduous than had been env sa.ged, as the previous indexing of many of the volumes was so de ective at most of them had to be re-done entirely. The thanks of the Club are due to Mr. angar for his unsparing work in bringing this task to a conclusion; to M . S. de V. Merri- man for help in the earlier stages; to Mr.. sanSferino for help in proof-reading; and to all others who hav co-op ated with them in the undertaking. E.. HERBERT, President. I I ! IlST OJ? ABB.

  • The Summits of Modern Man: Mountaineering After the Enlightenment (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2013)
    Bibliography Peter H. Hansen, The Summits of Modern Man: Mountaineering after the Enlightenment (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2013) This bibliography consists of works cited in The Summits of Modern Man along with a few references to citations that were cut during editing. It does not include archival sources, which are cited in the notes. A bibliography of works consulted (printed or archival) would be even longer and more cumbersome. The print and ebook editions of The Summits of Modern Man do not include a bibliography in accordance with Harvard University Press conventions. Instead, this online bibliography provides links to online resources. For books, Worldcat opens the collections of thousands of libraries and Harvard HOLLIS records often provide richer bibliographical detail. For articles, entries include Digital Object Identifiers (doi) or stable links to online editions when available. Some older journals or newspapers have excellent, freely-available online archives (for examples, see Journal de Genève, Gazette de Lausanne, or La Stampa, and Gallica for French newspapers or ANNO for Austrian newspapers). Many publications still require personal or institutional subscriptions to databases such as LexisNexis or Factiva for access to back issues, and those were essential resources. Similarly, many newspapers or books otherwise in the public domain can be found in subscription databases. This bibliography avoids links to such databases except when unavoidable (such as JSTOR or the publishers of many scholarly journals). Where possible, entries include links to full-text in freely-accessible resources such as Europeana, Gallica, Google Books, Hathi Trust, Internet Archive, World Digital Library, or similar digital libraries and archives.

Jose Burman, a South African member, died in 1995 but was not included at the time. Ginette Harrison was the first woman to climb Kangchenjunga, in 1998. Whilst not yet a member, she had started the application process for membership. She died on Dhaulagiri last year. Yossi Brain, who sent us valuable reports from South America for the Area Notes, died in an avalanche on 25 September 1999 while mountain­ eering with friends in Northern Bolivia. Yossi touched the lives of a lot of people, through his lively, bright, and often irreverent sense of humourwhich permeated his guiding, his books, his articles and above all his spirit. He achieved a lot in the time he had, making two different and sucessful careers, and providing inspiration to many. Ulf Carlsson was Chairman of the Mountain Club of Kenya between 1993 and 1996. He wrote an article about the Swedish mountains for the 1997 Alpine Journal and was well known to some of our members. He died in the Pamir in 1999.

  • Communication and Dissemination Plan
    BELLUNO PILOT AREAS REPORT INTRODUCTION FUTOURIST is pursuing new and innovative approaches satisfying the increasing demand of a natural tourism and the need of people to live a really intense experience among nature. The project faces the growing importance of sustainable activities to guarantee a soft tourism and the economic and social stability of a region. It also promotes an untouched landscape, as a base for an almost natural tourism. The project aims at municipalities, locations and regions that are less exploited by tourism and are located outside of conservation areas such as the National Park and Nature Parks. To realize the goals of FUTOURIST, that were approved by the authority, the following requirements were defined in the first step of the process of pilot region identification. • Presence of characteristic and special natural and/or cultural landscapes or features that are suitable “to be put in scene”; • Relation to locals who are engaged in conserving natural and/or cultural landscapes or features and/or are interested in communicating and transmitting knowledge or experience • Location outside of existing conservation areas • Perspective to pursue a nature-compatible and eco-friendly tourism that is in harmony with nature • Absence of hard touristic infrastructure and touristic exploitation Project partners defined 20 criteria in the categories morphology & infrastructure, nature & culture, tourism, economy and players for the selection of the potential pilot areas in order to guarantee sustainability to the project and ensure continuation of the activities. FUTOURIST provides for the identification in the province of Belluno of three experimental area that better respond to these criteria and in which sustainable tourism can be practiced The needs of the local stakeholders have been gathered during various meetings, the analysis and the drafting developed by DMO Dolomiti and the presentation of the plan commissioned at Eurac Research have been taken into consideration.

Wir freuen uns, mit Ihnen das Erlebnis dieses einmalig schönen und doch relativ einfachen Hochtouren- Weekends zu erleben. Folgende Infos möchten Ihnen Vorfreude auf Ihre Bergtage aufkommen lassen und Ihnen eine optimale Vorbereitung bieten. Treffpunkt: In Zermatt um 08.15 Uhr bei der Touristinfo (Ausgangs Bahnhof). Verpflegt und startbereit Programm: 1. Tag: Individuelle Anreise und Treff mit unserem Bergführer. Wir empfehlen, bereits am Vorabend anzureisen, damit Sie am Samstag nicht allzu früh aus den Federn müssen und sich etwas an die ungewohnte grosse Höhe akklimatisieren können. Vom Treffunkt aus wandern wir gemeinsam zur Talstation der Klein Matterhorn Seilbahn. Hier erreichen wir ganz locker schwebend bereits 3800 m. Nun beginnt der Aufstieg aus eigener Kraft auf das Breithorn 4164 m mit erhebender Aussicht – der imposante Blick von hier bringt uns das Gebiet der Monte Rosa und der vielen weiteren berühmten Viertausender näher. Aufstieg 350 Höhenmeter in ca. 2 Std. und Abstieg über die gleiche Route zurück zur Seilbahn und hinunter nach Zermatt. Weiterfahrt nach Herbriggen in unsere Unterkunft, das gemütliche Berghotel Bergfreund, wo Rosie uns schon herzlich erwartet. Hier essen und übernachten wir um am nächsten Tag ausgeruht nach Saas Grund zu wechseln. 2. Tag: Voller Tatendrang und erfüllt von den Bergeindrücken des gestrigen Tages fahren wir gestärkt nach ausgiebigem Frühstück nach Saas Fee und zu der Felskinnbahn Seilbahnen und der Metro Alpin-Standseilbahn und gelangen leicht und locker nach Mittelallalin.

Für den Kommandanten bildet er den zuverlässigen Bericht über den wirklichen Be- stand, das heisst über die Mittel, die ihm für den Kampfeinsatz zur Verfügung stehen: Mann, Ross, Fuhrwerk, künstliches Gewehr und Gerät aller Art. Unser «Front-Rapport» erzählt von den Fahrten und Gesprächen eines Soldaten, zu dessen Auftrag es gehörte, der Öffentlichkeit über wesentliche Geschehnisse und Vorgänge in der Armee Aufschluss zu geben. Von den persönlichen und militärischen Aufzeichnun- gen, die das Buch vereinigt, sind darum etliche da und dort in Zeitungen erschienen. Als Nie- derschlag des Erlebnisses dieses Aktivdienst- jahres möchte unser «Front-Rapport» dem Frontrapport des Feldweibels in einem Punkt zur Seite gehen: im Forschen nach dem wirkli- 5 chen Bestand. Darüber hinaus will das Buch mitwirken an der Stärkung der Herzen, an der Befestigung jener inneren Front, an der wir alle stehen, bewaffnet oder unbewaffnet, und unüberwindlich standhalten wollen als Solda- ten des Vaterlandes.
