  • Traversée Dirruhorn-Nadelhorn Ou Nadelgrat (Course Non Réalisée – Texte En Cours D’Écriture)∗
    Nadelhorn, 4327 m Traversée Dirruhorn-Nadelhorn ou Nadelgrat (Course non réalisée – Texte en cours d’écriture)∗ Les arêtes dont on décrit la traversée dans ces feuillets, qui relient le Dirruhorn (4035 m) au Nadelhorn (4327 m) suivant un axe NW-SE, font partie des Mischabel. Le Massif des Mischabels1 est parfois défini comme la chaîne montagneuse orientée nord-sud qui sé- pare les vallées de Zermatt à l’ouest et de Saas à l’est, dans le canton du Valais en Su- isse [5]. Selon cette description hydrologique, il serait normal de la faire descendre jusqu’au Schwarzberghorn (3609 m), qui est le point de partage des eaux entre les deux vaux préc- ités et le Val Anzasca en Italie, ou en tout cas de trouver un nom à cette chaîne. Cette définition donnerait au Massif des Mischabels une collection de 11 sommets de plus de 4000 m2 ; une fameuse brochette, contenant donc plus d’un huitième de l’ensemble des 82 sommets de plus de 4000 m des Alpes, homologués par UIAA3. Mais voilà, pour une raison qui nous échappe, la coutume en a décidé autrement et certains auteurs donnent au Mas- sif des Mischabels une étendue moindre au sud, en le limitant à l’Hohlaubgrat à l’Allalin (4027 m) [5], à l’Alphubel (4206 m) [4 ; p. 105] ou même au Täschhorn (4491 m) [2 ; p. 4]. On ne sera pas surpris d’apprendre, qu’avec de telles altitudes, cette échine de sommets forme une barrière difficilement franchissable ; son col le plus bas permettant de la traverser s’élève en effet déjà à 3539 m (situé près du col Schwarzberg Weisstor, qui lui fait 3562 m, il est sans nom sur la CNS), mais est difficile à franchir à cause d’une barre rocheuse4.

  • IN and out of SAAS. G. W. Murray
    IN AND OUT OF SAAS IN AN.D OUT OF SAAS BY G. w. MURRAY OST of us are agreed that our mountaineering ought to be rather more than an indiscriminate attack upon the perpendicular. That is to say, we do employ some method in our choice of objective, even if we restrict our assaults to the V£ertausender. Such a selection seems austere but rather too exclusive. Some years ago, when the peak-baggers were at their worst and they saw the glorious sky-lines of Saas and Zermatt only as so many scenic railways, I devised a game far better suited to my dignity and middle age. According to this convention, the Saas valley, from afar, was considered a stronghold to be carried at all hazards while, once an entrance had been forced, it became a prison to be broken out of at no matter what cost of in­ genuity or agility. A route, once made, was not to be repeated. Half a dozen -vvays, such as the' Col de Stalden,' the Simeli-Sirwolten route, the Rossboden Pass, the Monte Moro, the Adler and the Allalin, had already been done, and so were disqualified. Another obvious one, the Antrona, -vvas closed to us by the Italian Government. The Zwischbergen Pass appeared unworthy of the new idea; moreover, one easy route had to be left to the future in case we found ourselves condemned by old age and the convention to reside in Saas for the rest of our natural lives. But to find a seventh and better route professional advice and assistance became necessary, so I enlisted as our ally Oscar Supersaxo.

  • The A.M.A. Alpine Meet, 1959
    214 THE A.M.A. ALPINE MEET, 1959 THE A.M.A. ALPINE MEET, 1959 BY E. J. E. MILLS N MAY 1957 the Army Mountaineering Association came into being. The loss of easy access to the Himalaya had in no way diminished the numbers of post-war soldier mountaineers. As in civil life, mountaineering was gaining a larger following in the Army. Their enthusiasm had been demonstrated by the Parachute Brigade Expedi­ tions to Ruwenzori in 1954 and Alaska1 in 1956. These two ventures had also shown that if the right approaches were made, the \Var Office were prepared to give support and encouragement. By early 1957 the planning of the Army-inspired British-Pakistani Forces Himalayan Expedition had begun and in that same year there were no less than seven major corps or regimental mountaineering clubs in existence. 1\llountaineering was still not, however, officially recognised as a sport by the Army and as such was denied the advan­ tages mainly financial which other pursuits enjoyed. This was anomalous, for climbing was pursued far more actively and enthusiasti­ cally than many 'official' sports. It was therefore obvious that the interests of Army climbers would best be served by the formation of an authoritative body which could gain this recognition and foster mountaineering in the service. ) The first moves to set up such an organisation were made by Col. Gerry Finch. The idea of the Army Mountaineering Association was largely his and, although supported by several officers, who were also members of the Alpine Club, it was through his efforts and enthusiasm that the Association came into being.

NORTH SEA] BASIC SYSTEM ' • HIS is the only Basic System whose watershed does not penetrate beyond the Alps, so it is immaterial whether it be traced·from W. to E. as [Adriatic .w. North Sea], or from E. toW. as [North Sea . w. Adriatic]. The Basic Watershed, which also answers to the title [Po ~ w. Rhine], is short arid for purposes of practical convenience scarcely requires subdivision, but the distinction between the Aar basin (actually Reuss, and Limmat) and that of the Rhine itself, is of too great significance to be overlooked, to say nothing of the magnitude and importance of the Major Branch System involved. This gives two Basic Sections of very unequal dimensions, but the ., Alps being of natural origin cannot be expected to fall into more or less equal com­ partments. Two rather less unbalanced sections could be obtained by differentiating Ticino.- and Adda-drainage on the Po-side, but this would exhibit both hydrographic and Alpine inferiority.

  • In Memoriam 115
    IN MEMORIAM 115 • IN MEMORIAM CLAUDE WILSON 1860-1937 THE death of Claude Wilson within a few weeks of attaining his seventy-seventh birthday came as a terrible shock to his many friends. Few of us even knew that he was ill, but in the manner of his passing none can regret that there was no lingering illness. We can but quote his own words in Lord Conway's obituary: 'the best we can wish for those that we love is that they may be spared prolonged and hopeless ill health.' His brain remained clear up to the last twenty-four hours and he suffered no pain. The end occurred on October 31. With Claude Wilson's death an epoch of mountaineering comes to an end. He was of those who made guideless and Alpine history from Montenvers in the early 'nineties, of whom but Collie, Kesteven, Bradby, ~olly and Charles Pasteur still survive. That school, in which Mummery and Morse were perhaps the most prominent examples, was not composed of specialists. Its members had learnt their craft under the best Valais and Oberland guides; they were equally-proficient on rocks or on snow. It mattered little who was acting as leader in the ascent or last man in the descent. They were prepared to turn back if conditions or weather proved unfavourable. They took chances as all mountaineers are forced to do at times­ but no fatal accidents, no unfortunate incidents, marred that great page of Alpine history, a page not confined to Mont Blanc alone but distributed throughout the Western Alps.

Current glacier recession causes significant rockfall increase: the immediate paraglacial response of deglaciating cirque walls Ingo Hartmeyer1, Robert Delleske1, Markus Keuschnig1, Michael Krautblatter2, Andreas Lang3, Lothar Schrott4, and Jan-Christoph Otto3 1GEORESEARCH Research Institute, Wals, Austria 2Chair of Landslide Research, Technical University of Munich, Munich, Germany 3Department of Geography and Geology, University of Salzburg, Salzburg, Austria 4Department of Geography, University of Bonn, Bonn, Germany Correspondence: Ingo Hartmeyer ([email protected]) Received: 4 February 2020 – Discussion started: 9 March 2020 Revised: 25 June 2020 – Accepted: 16 July 2020 – Published: 11 September 2020 Abstract. In the European Alps, almost half the glacier volume has disappeared over the past 150 years. The loss is reflected in glacier retreat and ice surface lowering even at high altitude. In steep glacial cirques, surface lowering exposes rock to atmospheric conditions probably for the very first time in several millennia. Instability of rockwalls has long been identified as one of the direct consequences of deglaciation, but so far cirque-wide quantification of rockfall at high resolution is missing. Based on terrestrial lidar, a rockfall inventory for the permafrost-affected rockwalls of two rapidly deglaciating cirques in the Central Alps of Austria (Kitzsteinhorn) is established. Over 6 years (2011–2017), 78 rockwall scans were acquired to generate data of high spatial and temporal resolution. Overall, 632 rockfalls were registered, ranging from 0.003 to 879.4 m3, mainly originating from pre-existing structural rock weaknesses.
