This is related to its great cul- tural significance, since the ancient Greeks considered this mountain as the habitat of their Gods, ever since Zeus became the dominant figure of the ancient Greek re- ligion and consequently the protagonist of the cultural regime. Before the genera- tion of Zeus, Olympus was inhabited by the generation of Cronus. In this paper we shall refer to a lesser known mythological reference which, in our opinion, presents similarities to the geotectonic evolution of the wider area of Olympus. According to Apollodorus and other great authors, the God Poseidon and Iphimedia had twin sons, the Aloades, namely Otus and Ephialtes, who showed a tendency to gigantism. When they reached the age of nine, they were about 16 m. tall and 4.5 m. wide.

He then pays tribute to Jean-Christophe Lafaille, guarantor died at the end of January at the Makalu. A – Activity report Hugues Thiébault, general Secretary – MW International 1 – Extension of the network of national associations One of the tasks devoted to the new MW international Board: help creating new MW national associations. The task is harder than at been planned since it necessitates the existence of committed people inside the considered country. Thus, in 2005, the creations of MW Georgia and MW Bulgaria where expected, but the negotiations are still under way. Prospects: - During 2006:creation of MW Belgium; - End 2006: creation of MW Bulgaria; - At mid-term: MW Georgia, thanks to the common work of MW Switzerland and MW Germany; rebirth of MW Greece as soon as the present problems are solved; - At more long term: Croatia, Poland, Chile. 2 – Communication A single speaker for MW international Creation of a unique electronic mail address for the international Coordination: [email protected]. This unique address is working well and strengthens the cohesion between associations by facilitating the exchanges. Each association must remember to communicate all the important national actions to this address, thus allowing the information of all the network of MW associations, and the case being give an international echo to the aforementioned action. A MW international Internet website: http://mountainwilderness.org/ Created by Philippe Imbert, this important tool permits us to be present everywhere in the world; particularly, it allows us to be visible and intervene in countries having no national association.

  • Awesome and Majestic Mountains
    Awesome and Majestic Mountains Dr. Marie Fernandes In October 2012 when I undertook a pilgrimage to the Holy Land I was struck by the numerous mountains that formed part of the terrain. The landscape for the most part was desert, dry and rugged and yet much of the action that took place in the Bible was on the mountains. Our scholarly priest Fr. Selva Rathinam sj, of Jnana-Deepa Vidyapeeth, Pune gave us wonderful reflections each day. One of his most memorable phrases was the name he said the Jewish people had for God. It was El Shadai, ‘God of the Mountains’. Everything else perishes - trees, birds, animals and man, but mountains go on forever. Therefore they gave witness to the Kingdom of God and were often the place where covenants were made. People believed that the mountains were the abode of Gods. In October I visited Switzerland and the Swiss Alps were awe inspiring. Soon after, a seminar on Shakespeare took me to Srinagar and the mountains there were majestic. They seemed to speak to me and I listened in profound silence. Mountains and hills are mentioned very prominently in the Bible. Noah’s ark rested on Mount Ararat at 16,854 feet, after the flood (Genesis 8: 1-5). Mount Sinai and Mount Zion have a special place. It was on Mount Sinai that Moses received the Ten Commandments, the Law of righteous living. Mount Sinai at 7,497 feet was a symbol of God’s covenant with Israel. When God spoke to Moses… On the morning of the third day there was thunder and lightning with a thick cloud over the mountain, and a very loud trumpet blast.

Countries sometimes associated with Asia politically and culturally, but not as a geographical part of Asia, are not included in this list of physical characteristics (with the exception of Cyprus - marked with an N/A rating). Not all of the points on this list are mountains or hills, some are simply in distinguishable altitudes as geographical characteristics. Notes are provided in case of territorial disputes or conflicts affecting the list. Some countries such as Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Russia (Elbrus) have part of their territory and their high points outside Asia; Their non-Asian high scores are listed with an N/A rated entry below their continental peak. Three other entoes from the most recognized countries with the highest scores in Asia are listed and ranked in Inalic. For more details, see List of states with limited recognition.

This issue contains the usual excellent summaries of all Peruvian and foreign expeditions throughout the Peruvian Andes in the two years under review, including the ascent of Rondoy by the London University Expedition on August 7, I 963, followed by the fatal accident to P. Bebbington and G. Sadler. Short obituary notices of both the latter are included. In the note describing the French first ascent of Chacraraju Este (August 5, I962) the peak is renamed Huaripampa. An article by the Editor, dated February, I964, distinguishes and describes twenty separate ranges in Peru, with a sketch-map. The five • principal ones are the Cordilleras Blanca, Huayhuash, Vilcanota, Vilcabamba and Ampato: the secondary ones are Apolobamba, Uru­ bamba, Raura, V olcanica and Barroso : and there are ten minor ranges. The nomenclature and map have been accepted, as a study basis, by the Second National Geographical Congress held at Arequipa. A detailed report is published of the proceedings of the First Peruvian National Andean Convention, which was held at Huaraz, July 29- August 3, I963. Nine Peruvian Clubs were represented, and there were also foreign observers from Brazil, U.S.A., Spain, Switzerland, New Zealand and Great Britain (A. Gregory). The Spanish Expedition to the Peruvian Andes, I 96 I, is recorded in a fully illustrated booklet by the leader, F. Mendez, published in Madrid.

  • Is One Full Stair Climb from the Ground Floor to the Sixth Floor, a Total of 157 Stairs Or 88 Feet
    So this is how it works… • A “Lucas” is one full stair climb from the ground floor to the sixth floor, a total of 157 stairs or 88 feet. • Only going up counts, down doesn’t count. • Every time you complete a “Lucas” you make a dash in the current peak box (start at the beginning and progress by mountains). • Once you have the required number of Lucas’s for a certain peak, you begin making dashes in the next peak box until that too is complete. • Steadily progress from one box to the next until, before you know, it you have climbed to the top of Mt Everest! • After completing a peak make sure to take a sticker for that peak and display it proudly. • If you prefer to do your climbing elsewhere, don’t worry it still counts. Just keep track of the number of steps; any 157 stairs count as a Lucas. Number of Lucas’s needed to reach the peak 9 Number of completed Lucas’s Climb to the Top of Mt.
