F. F. Tuckett inci- dentally mentioned the fact that Sir John Herschel had told him he had ascended the Breithorn from the Theodul in 1821 ; Tuckett had never heard of Maynard.2 Lord Minto, who went up the mountain in 1830, called it Monte Rosa and said, it was the summit ascended in I822 by Sir' John Herschel. 3 His authority vvas either Sir John himself, or J oseph-Marie Couttet who had been the first guide of both parties. Coolidge accepted 1822 as the date of Herschel's climb.4 According to Tuckett, no Zermatt guide had ever reached the summit before him, in June 1859. · Now it is obvious that there is some missing link in this story, and I • • endeavoured to find it. Thanks to the great .kindness of the Rev. Sir John Herschel, the astronomer's grandson, I am able to give the com­ plete story of the second ascent of the Breithorn by Sir John Herschel in 1821. His travel-diaries are kept in Slough Observatory House, the family seat, and his grandson allowed me to read them and to have his drawings photographed. I found a few more details in Sir John's letters to the Genevese astronomer Alfred Gautier vvhich are kept in the Bibliotheque Publique et U niversitaire in Geneva.

    Alphubel (4206 m) Hochtour | Walliser Alpen 500+1500 Hm | insg. 12:00 Std. | Schwierigkeit (3 von 6) Vom Gletscherdorf Saas-Fee aus präsentiert sich der Alphubel von seiner schönsten Seite - als gewaltiger Gletscherkoloss und als einer der markantesten Viertausender überhaupt. Der Normalweg führt auf der Rückseite des Berges vom Mattertal über die heimelige Täschhütte auf das große Gipfelplateau, das wie ein riesiger Tanzplatz zwischen Himmel und Erde wirkt. Technisch gehört die Normalroute auf den Alphubel zu den leichteren Routen auf einen der für das Tourenbuch so begehrten Viertausender. © Tourentipp.com 2021 Seite 1/3 1 2 3 4 5 6 Schwierigkeit Kondition Gefahrenpotenzial Landschaft Frequentierung Anfahrt: Von Deutschland mit dem Auto über Oberalppass / Furka oder via Lötschberg-Bahnverladung ins Rhônetal nach Visp. Weiter von Visp über Stalden ins Mattertal nach Täsch (1450 m). Empfehlenswert ist auch die Anreise per Bahn über Zürich und Visp direkt nach Täsch. Von Täsch aus führt eine kleine Bergstraße zur Siedlung Ottavan auf der Täschalp (2205 m), dort gebührenfreier Parkplatz. Bahnreisende können auch eines der regelmäßig verkehrenden Sammeltaxis nutzen (SFr. 10,-, Stand 2013). Ausgangspunkt: Siedlung Ottavan auf der Täschalp (2205 m) im Mattertal Route: Hüttenzustieg: Auf gut beschildertem, breiten Hüttenweg in ca. 1 ¼ Stunden direkt zur Täschhütte (2701 m). Die Hütte ist bereits vom Parkplatz aus zu sehen. Gipfelanstieg: Von der Täschhütte (2701 m) führt ein deutlicher Weg (Schild: Alphubelsee) zunächst Richtung Ostsüdosten über zwei der drei „Schreienden Bäche“ in den Chumibodmen. Nun am dritten Bach entlang, jetzt steiler durch Blockwerk in östlicher Richtung. Die deutliche Spur verliert sich in verschiedenen kleinen Wegen, die aber alle über weichen Gletschersand am großen Alphubelsee vorbei zum Anseilplatz auf einer Felsenrippe am südlichen Arm des Alphubelgletschers führen (3300 m).

Its bold pyramidal shape evokes emotions of wonderment and even fear in those who view it for the first time, as its four distinct faces stand omnipotent and menacing over the green meadows below. Separated by sharp ridges, the four faces are orientated to the four points of the compass, the northern aspects within Switzerland while the southern side lies in Italy.

  • The Matterhorn Centenary

    The Matterhorn Centenary

    TI-IE MATTERHORN CENTENARY THE MATTERHORN CENTENARY BY B. R. GOODFELLO'IV (Five illustrations: nos. 50- 54) DWARD WHYMPER must have appreciated in his lifetime that his ascent of the Matterhorn and his own dramatic account of the ............. disaster had added immeasurably to the glamour of that incom­ parable mountain. So he must have realised the great contribution which he made personally to the greater prosperity of the people of Zermatt; they have long acknowledged this and the centenary was closely linked with Whymper"s name. But he could scarcely have foreseen the impact of to-day's mass affluence, of the rise of ski-ing and of universal publicity on the Alpine village he had known first over 100 years ago. We had all expected for some years that the centenary of the Matter­ horn ascent would be used by Zermatt for publicity on the grand scale. With the true mountain lovers' distaste for the prostitution of the Alps for commercial ends, many decided to keep away in 1965. But by doing so they missed a great occasion. For, although the Festival Week was unashamedly dedicated to Zermatt propaganda, the whole of the func­ tions were conducted in the very best of taste. Above all Zermatt, for this week, was the meeting place for mountaineers from all over Europe and from America, India and further afield. Enjoying the warm and generous hospitality of our Swiss hosts, we made many valuable new friendships and renewed old ones. The Alpine Club came in some strength, more than fifty in number, many with their wives and some with their families.

  • 1 Tydzień = 5 X 4000 M Npm

    1 Tydzień = 5 X 4000 M Npm

    1 tydzień = 5 x 4000 m npm Pomysł na tygodniowy wyjazd alpejski zapadł jeszcze w czerwcu. Głównym celem na 7 dni w Alpach dla mnie i Marcina stał się Weisshorn (4505 m). Szczyt trudny do zdobycia ze względu na wysokość i odległość podejścia z „bazy”, czyli wioski Randa zlokalizowanej przed słynnym ale nieco niższym Matterhornem. Pomysł zainteresował także szersze grono wspinaczy naszego KW. Jednak skład wykrystalizował się tuż przed terminem wyjazdu i ostatecznie do Randy udali się: Marcin Miczke, Maciej Przebitkowski. Radek Sołtykowski i ja – Jacek Wichłacz. Termin: 8 – 16.08.2012r. Czyli tzw. długi weekend. Już następnego dnia, po rozbiciu namiotu na campingu w Randzie udaliśmy się na wyjścia aklimatyzacyjne. Z braku miejsc w schronisku wyjście do Weisshornhutte musieliśmy przesunąć do soboty. Razem zatem - czyli w czwórkę - wjechaliśmy kolejką na Klein Matterhorn i tu nasze drogi nieoczekiwanie się rozeszły. Jak się potem okazało na 5 dni. Marcin i ja postanowiliśmy wejść na Roccia Nera (4075 m) i jak czas pozwoli na kolejny czterotysięcznik - Polluxa (4092 m). Maciej i Radek mieli pomysł aby wejść na coś lekkiego np. na Castora (4228 m) , przespać się dla lepszej aklimatyzacji w najbliższym schronisku Quintino Sella (3587 m.n.p.m.) i wrócić w tempie wypoczynkowo-spacerowym do Randy następnego dnia. Zgodnie z założeniami nasze aklimatyzacyjne wejścia dokonaliśmy na 2 wytyczone 4 - tysięczniki prawie bez chwili przerwy (nawet nie było czasu na zjedzenie drugiego śniadania). Ale skończyłyby się to o mało co „ kiblem” na stacji kolejki. Na jej ostatni zjazd zdążyliśmy 3 min. przed odjazdem w dół. O mały włos a aklimatyzacja Marcina i moja trwałaby o noc dłużej i to w warunkach dość ubogich.

    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.

Therefore, this project consists of developing a smart scooter capable of respecting pedestrians and providing a greater safety to the driver and to pedestrians as well. In this project, it has been improved a normal electric scooter in order to obtain a smart scooter. The final result is a scooter that can interact with the environment and adapt to it with intelligent features. For example, if a person is in front of the smart scooter, it can automatically reduce its speed to avoid an accident. To achieve that, it has been analysed different possibilities of scooters. Afterwards, the best smart scooter has been chosen and, finally, it has been developed. In addition, it has been studied the economic viability of the scooter and its environmental impact. On the other hand, in his project the smart scooter hasn’t been manufactured, it has only been designed. For this reason, this project focuses on the design, rather than on production. In spite of that, the smart scooter has been thought to be manufactured and it could perfectly be used as a model.
