  • Bernina Alps 1988 Alpine Meet
    THE HOME FRONT Midday Tuesday: Sue returned suffering from the heavy cold that had afflicted several of us, with news of their intention to climb Piz Roseg and traverse to the Marco e Rosa Hut to meet Roger and Graham. It sounded like a long expedition. Wednesday 1.30am Wakened by the thunderstorm and a sudden premonition -I hope they are not out in this! 3.30pm Roger and Graham come into camp: "Don't ask me where he is. I don't know." All the possible alternatives - they could have returned to the Tschierva Hut, or made in the direction of the Coaz ­ but in either case they should have been back by now. Still, they would move more slowly - three in· the party, and one inexperienced. To eat or not to eat? Keep something to heat up quickly when (if) they get back. 7.30pm Roger heads for the 'phone - contact the huts to try and get news. Queues for the 'phones: it's after 8 before he re turns. "They are all right - a t the Marco e Rosa - I've spoken to David - they spent the night in an ice couloir ­ Arthur's los t his axe. They'll be on their way back in the morning." At least we can get a night's sleep. Thursday am It all starts again - the one really bad day we've had. Cloud only a couple of hundred feet above the camp ­ and it rained all morning. It'll be snow up there. Will they set off or not? Probably - it's an 'easy' route - they're probably running short of both food and money - and Shirley's due to leave for home tomorrow evening.

Subfossil wood remains found at the retreating glacier tongue indicate that their emergence results from recent transport from an upvalley basin. A confluence-basin-like structure was found to exist by georadar measurements underneath the present glacier. In combination with high resolution age determinations based on dendrochronology and radiocarbon dating it is implied that a retreated Tschierva Glacier allowed vegetation growth and sediment accumulation in that basin. Three periods of glacier recession were detected, which occurred around 9200 cal yr BP, from 7450 to 6650 cal yr BP and from 6200 to 5650 cal yr BP. These periods are called Holocene optimum events (HOE). Accordingly, an equilibrium line rise 4220 m compared to the reference period from 1960 to 1985 was inferred from digital elevation models of former glacier extents. Since glacier mass balance depends on summer (June–July–August) temperature and precipitation, an equilibrium line altitude (ELA) rise of 220 m implies a summer temperature increase of about 1.8 1C assuming unchanged precipitation during the dated HOE.

  • THE ENGADINE by Ramias Steinemann
    16.7.2014 - ISSUE 13 - WATER - STEINEMANN RAMIAS - ESSAYS, STUDIO THE ENGADINE by Ramias Steinemann The Valley of the Engadin begins at the Maloja mountain pass with a chain of lakes running southwest to northeast: " Lej da Segl ", " Lej da Silvaplauna " , and " Lej da San Murezzan " . Maloja is a watershed dividing the river " Inn " flowing via the Danube to the Black Sea and the " Maira " via the Po to the Mediterranean Sea. With the Maira to the Southwest the Val Bregagila drops precipitously down to Chiavenna in Italy while to the north east with the "Inn" the upper-engadine slowly goes down as an open valley towards St.Moritz and to the more narrow lower-engadine .
