[2] Not “The Tirol,” still less “The Austrian Tirol,” but “Tirol.” We do not speak of “The Scotland” or “The British Scotland.”

[3] The origin of the Alpine Club is, to some extent, a matter of dispute, the above is the view usually entertained.

[4] Mount Blanc is divided between France and Italy; and the Italian frontier crosses Monte Rosa.
