EXCURSIONS.

 

 

Mr. E. A. Crowley, among minor ascents, made a traverse of the Trifthorn, with descent of N.W. face (not given in Conway, and may be new—with a companion); the Aiguille de la Za (alone); the Vuibez séracs—an ice-fall which has probably not been passed before without taking to the rocks; Aiguilles Rouges d’Arolla traversed (climbing every gendarmes on south peak—party benighted on ridge). All guideless. [See Crowley's account of the Aiguilles Rouges in the book, Walks and Climbs Around Arolla.]
