BENSON Ltd. LONDON : T. C. & E. C. JACK, 35 & 36 PATERNOSTER ROW, E.C. AND EDINBURGH PREFATORY NOTE This book of Mountaineering Ventures is written primarily not for the man of the peaks, but for the man of the level pavement. Certain technicalities and commonplaces of the sport have therefore been explained not once, but once and again as they occur in the various chapters. The intent is that any reader who may elect to cull the chapters as he lists may not find himself unpleasantly confronted with unfamiliar phraseology whereof there is no elucidation save through the exasperating medium of a glossary or a cross-reference. It must be noted that the percentage of fatal accidents recorded in the following pages far exceeds the actual average in proportion to ascents made, which indeed can only be reckoned in many places of decimals. The explanation is that this volume treats not of regular routes, tariffed and catalogued, but of Ventures—an entirely different matter. Were it within his powers, the compiler would wish ade- quately to express his thanks to the many kind friends who have assisted him with loans of books, photographs, good advice, and, more than all, by encouraging countenance. Failing this, he must resort to the miserably insufficient re- source of cataloguing their names alphabetically.

  • Antrona Ophiolite, Pennine Alps) As Inferred from Microstructural, Microchemical, and Neutron Diffraction Quantitative Texture Analysis

Marconi 66, 28844 Villadossola, Italy. *** Institut Laue-Langevin, Grenoble, France. ° CNR-IDPA, Sezione di Milano, Italy. Corresponding author: e-mail: [email protected] Keywords: Antrona ophiolite, serpentinite, mantle peridotite, neutron diffraction, Quantitative texture analysis. Pennine Alps. ABSTRACT The Antrona ophiolite is located in the Italian side of Western Central Alps. In the Alpine nappe stack, it lies at low structural levels, being sandwiched between the overlying continental Monte Rosa Nappe (upper Penninic) and the underlying Camughera-Moncucco continental Unit (middle Penninic). The ophiolite sequence includes serpentinized ultramafites, metagabbros and mafic rocks covered by calcschists. The ultramafic portion of the Antrona ophiolite consists of serpentinized peridotites, with interbedded layers of various mafic/ultramafic rocks, and underlies the mafic rocks and metasediments. In spite of the Alpine tectonic and metamorphic evolution of the Antrona ophiolite and its heavy serpentinization, the ultramafic rocks preserve relict texture and miner- alogy that allow discussing the nature of their protoliths. Olivine-clinopyroxene-spinel-bearing serpentinites still retain relict porphyroclastic texture, com- monly attributed to mantle peridotites. This inference is supported by quantitative textural analysis of Lattice Preferred Orientation by neutron diffraction, per- formed for the first time in olivine crystals of Alpine ophiolites, suggesting T conditions > 800°C for the activation of slip systems.

  • TWO TUNNELS in COLD ICE at 4,000 M. on the BREITHORN
    TWO TUNNELS IN COLD ICE AT 4,000 m. ON THE BREITHORN By J OEL E. FISHER (New York) ABSTR ACT . A d escription is given of two tunnels, each 60- 70 m. long, one directl y a bove the o ther, a t 4,000 a nd 4,020 m . a.s.1. excavated throug h cold firn and ice of the Breithorn in the A lps. The tem pera ture rose from - 5' 50 C. at the portal to - o· 50 C. a t the rock interface 70 m. from the porta l in the upper tunnel, a nd from - 5' 50 C. to 00 C. at a water reservoir 60 m . from the porta l in the lower tunnel. In both cases cracks or minute sealed crevasses, cut by the tunnel, opera ted to cool the ice locally below the tempera ture to be expected from a smooth curve. Possible origins of the water reservoir a re d iscussed. Small a mounts of a ir a t a moderate pressure, enclosed in small, sealed cracks a nd hollows, were punctured between 60 a nd 70 m. from the portal in the upper tunnel. T he pungent od or of the air thus released was identified as ozone (a) by its cha racteristic odor, (b) by its reacti on on rubber, and (c) by potassium iodide starch paper tests. The so urcc of such ozone is suspected to be minute electric sparks resulting from sta ti c electric charges built up in cold ice when it is subjected under pressure to cracking or deforma ti o n ; photo­ graphs taken with expos ures of 8 hr.

  • Easy Four-Thousanders in the Alps: Between Alpinism and Mass Tourism
    12 GEOGRAPHY AND TOURISM, Vol. 6, No. 2 (2018), 119-128, Semi-Annual Journal eISSN 2449-9706, ISSN 2353-4524, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.2144166 © Copyright by Kazimierz Wielki University Press, 2018. All Rights Reserved. http://geography.and.tourism.ukw.edu.pl Marcin Gorączko UTP University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Architecture, Bydgoszcz, Poland, email: [email protected] Easy four-thousanders in the Alps: between alpinism and mass tourism Abstract: The article discusses natural and anthropogenic conditions of the present-day exploration of five Alpine moun- tain peaks – selected for the purpose of the present paper – standing at 4000 meters above sea level or higher, includ- ing Allalinhorn, Breithorn, Gran Paradiso, Punta Gnifetti (Signalkuppe) and Zumsteinspitze, which are referred to as easy Alpine four-thousanders. A common belief that the summits are easily accessible contributes to a higher volume of tourists in their region, which, besides favorable and relatively safe natural conditions, is further facilitated by intensive development of tourism infrastructure including mountain huts and most of all mountain railways. The analysis of the contemporary phenomenon of climbing easy four-thousanders almost on a massive scale provides basis for a discussion on the ongoing human impact on the environment in the highest Alps and the blurring of boundaries between a sport and elite mountain feat that requires both special qualifications and considerable experience and an objectively average achievement accessible to almost every physically fit tourist. Key words: alpine four-thousanders, Alpine tourism, mass tourism 1. Introduction Mountain areas are home to diverse tourist century (Kurek, 2004), its development on activities which irrespective of their nature a mass scale is a relatively new phenomenon.

  • Breuil-Cervinia Valtournenche Emozioni Da Sempre
    Breuil-Cervinia Valtournenche Emozioni da sempre... "Heureux celui qui sur ces monts put longtemps se reposer. Heureux celui qui les revoit s'il a dû les quitter." Lord Byron 2 0 0 9 75 ANNI DI STORIA Il più nobile scoglio d’Europa John Ruskin Breuil-Cervinia Valtournenche Dove la neve è più neve. Sci, neve, adrenalina, passione, divertimento, emozioni. L’inverno a Breuil-Cervinia e Valtournenche significa sci, aria pura ed emozioni che solo questa montagna sa dare. Qui l’emozione di una discesa, può essere classica o estrema, a seconda dei gusti e delle capacità di vivere i 4 mila metri sci ai piedi. Un mondo che tuttavia non è fatto solo di neve e sci, ma è tradizione, cultura e rispetto della natura. L’inverno a Breuil-Cervinia resta nel cuore. Quassù le emozioni colorano il bianco dell’inverno. Panorami mozzafiato accompagnano l’ospite durante tutta la giornata. Vuoi volare davvero per scendere con gli sci? A Breuil-Cervinia puoi farlo grazie all’emozione dell’Heliski: pochi minuti di volo e professionisti dell’aria a bordo di moderni e sicuri elicotteri ti portano in quota dove cime incontaminate e crinali suggestivi faranno da cornice alle tue discese da favola, accompagnati da guide di alta montagna o maestri di sci. Per chi non volesse lasciare le piste battute e volesse provare l’emozione di scendere tra i pali stretti non mancheranno le occasioni per misurarsi contro il cronometro. Infine se la neve e il ghiaccio non ti spaventano neppure all’imbrunire, ti aspettano le corse in speciali kart pensati per correre in sicurezza su di un percorso ghiacciato.

  • The Matterhorn Centenary 7
    THE MATTERHORN CENTENARY 7 THE MATTERHORN CENTENARY (Nine illustrations: nos. I- 9) VEN though the Matterhorn fell with unexpected ease to the first party which seriously pressed an attempt from the Swiss side, the eauty and isolation of the peak and its apparent inaccessibility- the latter confirmed by the lengthening history of frustrated attempts by the Italian ridge made it the most sought after prize in the Alps at the time of the first ascent. It still remains so, in the obvious sense to which the congestion of the Hornli ridge on any fine day in July or August bears witness. It has become a tourist's mountain, as well as a mountaineer's. But the mountaineer, however much he may deplore the fixed ropes and the crowds which swarm up and down them, will still wish to have climbed the Matterhorn. Neither the highest nor the hardest of the great peaks of the Alps, it continues to exercise much the same special fascina­ tion for climbers as it exercised a hundred years ago. July 14 of this year marks the hundredth anniversary of the day when Michel Croz' blouse, fixed to a tent-pole on the summit of the Matter­ horn, was seen 'at Zermatt at the Riffel in the Val Tournanche '; when the watchers in Breuil cried, 'Victory is ours!'; and when, an hour or two later, a sharp-eyed lad in Zermatt ran into the Monte Rosa hotel, saying that he had seen an avalanche fall from the summit of the Matter­ horn onto the Matterhorn glacier, and was reproved for telling idle stories.

His line of research was to investigate \Vind spe-ed and visibility as they affect parachute landings. I~ was while serving in this capacity that, in order that he might himself apply the test of practice to his theories, he yolun­ teered for a bombing raid, from which he was reported missing, presumed killed, in the spring of 1943. Most of Crichton-Miller's climbing was done with his- family and family friends; however, as an undergraduate he was an active member of the Oxford University Mountaineering Club, and was for a time on the committee. As a climber he was strong and safe, well -grounded in Alpine ·tradition. His big frame seemed to belong to the epoch of frontal attack and hours of tireless step-cutting. _Probably his best climb was a guideless ascent of the Zmutt ridge in 1938 .

    VOLUMES 59 TO 73 Index The Alpine Journal 1953-68 Compiled by D. F. o. Dangar SBN 9°°523 04- 2 The Alpine Club, 74- South Audley Street, London, WI Y 5FF Preface The present volume of the Index to the Alpine Journal, the fourth in the series, carries the Index from 1953 (Volume 59) to 1968 (Volume 73), the last year before the change of the Journal into a single annual volume. The proposal for this continuation of the consolidated Index was made in late 1968, when the Committee invited Mr D. F. O. Dangar to undertake it. His willingness to do this in addition to the heavy burden of the Assistant Editor- ship of the Alpine Journal itself, and the speed with which he completed the vast amount of work involved, are very greatly appreciated; and the Alpine Club has recognised the outstanding contribution which he has made to the objects of the Club, through his work both on the Alpine Journal and on suc- cessive volumes of the Index, by electing him to Honorary Membership. The thanks of the Club are also due to Mrs Sarah Hollis for her work on the typescript. Charles Evans President May I970 Foreword This Index has been compiled on the same basis as the previous volume, but, to save space, the writers of obituaries and reviews have not been indexed. In addition to portraits, illustrations that have been indexed are, in general, those of single mountains or mountain ranges which are likely to be of geo- graphical interest. Pictures of pitches, or small sections of a climb, high camps and similar subjects have not been indexed: although of contemporary interest, it is felt that such illustrations, which usually in any case are referred to in the associated articles, can be omitted without serious detriment to the value of the Index.
