  • Sir John Herschel and the Breithorn
    298 SIR JOHN HERSCHEL AND THE BREITHORN • SIR JOHN HERSCHEL AND THE BREITHORN BY CLAIRE ELIANE ENGEL HERE is a tradition according to which the Breithorn was first climbed in 1813 by a completely unknown Frenchman, Henri 1 • • Maynard and later by Sir John Herschel. 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.

Photo: Mike Roberts The Matterhorn is undeniably the most magnificent and well-known peak in the Alps. 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. We ascend via the Hörnli Ridge that separates the rich heritage adds to the superb facilities, including North and East Faces via a long and technical route catered huts and lift systems offering services not requiring the utmost attention from climbers.

The females have reduced wings and cannot fly. However, a study of material from the known ränge of the species has shown that "Sphaleroptera alpi- colana" is really a complex of several taxa. S. alpicolana s.str. oecurs in the central part of the Alps, in Switzerland, Italy, Austria and Germany. A new subspecies, S. a. buseri ssp.n. is described from the Valais (Switzerland). Four new species are described, based on distinet differences in the male and female genitalia: S. occiclentana sp.n., S. adamel- loi sp.n.. S. dentana sp.n. and .S'. orientana sp.n., with the subspecies S. o. suborientana. Distribution maps are giv- en for all taxa and where known, the early stages and life histories are described. The role of the Pleistocene glacia- tions in the speciation process is discussed. Zusammenfassung Sphaleroptera alpicolana (FRÖLICH 1830) ist eine lokal häufige, Tag fliegende, hochalpine Art, bisher aus den deut- schen, österreichischen, schweizerischen, italienischen und französischen Alpen, und den Pyrenäen bekannt.

  • The Centenary Meet at Zermatt, Pages from a Diary
    • • • • • RACI.ETTE PAnTY, A UGUST 20, 1957, AT RIFFELALP. THE CENTENARY MEET AT ZERMATT, 1957 TI-IE CENTENARY MEET AT ZERMATT, 1957 Pages from a Diary BY SIR JOHN I-IUNT wo days after the Raclette party on Riffelalp, our party returned to the Betemps hut, after an exceptionally cold and windy traverse of the Lyskamm, which was, however, noteworthy I for the membership of the party itself; it included the leaders of two Swiss Everest Expeditions, Eduard Wyss-Dunant and Albert Eggler, as well as Fritz IJuchsinger, who, with Ernst Reiss, made the first ascent of Lhotse in 1956. .. Our next objective was the Brei thorn via the Klein Triftje (or Young ridge) and we were busy with preparations from the moment of our return to the hut. The composition of the party for this next expedition changed with the arrival of George Band and Chris Brasher, hot-foot from the Bregag­ lia; my wife and Wyss-Dunant dropped out, and Hobhouse, Tyson and I were joined by Eggler, Luchsinger and Fritz Gansser . August 22. We left the hut at 3 a.m. in clear starlight. Band and Brasher got away to a flying start and made a great pace across the Grenz glacier towards the foot of the buttress thrown down from the I{lein Triftj e; we could see their lantern almost half a mile ahead of us when we were barely half-way across. Misfortune struck us early, for at brief intervals both Luchsinger and I broke our crampons on the rough going; we managed to make temporary repairs, but I was short of t,;vo of the inside points, which proved awkward later on.

  • Pennine Alps 1993 Alpine Meet
    THE YORKSHIRE RAMBLERS' CLUB ALPINE MEET 1993. , , The Meet The question asked of many mountaineers is, 'Have you ever climbed the . Matterhorn?' This year was the opportunity for our members to dojustthat. .' The' valley boasts many very fine peaks, the Weisshorn, the Dom.: and the Monte Rosa, to name but a few. With a total of 39 attending, the meet was the best attended so far. The average age was considerably.down on that of earlier alpine meets and the activity was very high with the majority :oLthemajor .. peaks: bounding the valley being climbed. ' Location The campsite chosen was at Randa in the Saint Nicholas valley- perhaps the most famous valley in all the alpine regions. It lies to the south of the Rhone valley, leaving it at Visp and extending up to Zermatt. Randa was preferred to Zermatt as it is less spoiled and does not attract so many tourists. The dominant peak seen from the campsite is the Zinal Rothorn.' A massive land slip ofa few, years ago only a two kilometres away demonstrated the anger that these mountains can exert, but it also illustrated how man can respond;" the Swiss re­ routed the road, railway and river injust one week. Campsite Most people considered the site to be the best so far. It was fairly crowded, ,, but there was a rapid turnover. The site shop was very handy and there were the villages of Tasch and Randa in' easy walking distance. Also easy rail access for Zermatt and a cheap minibus ferrying to and from Zermatt. The owner and staff spoke good English and were extremely helpful in booking huts for us by telephone atno charge.
