*"The Spaghetti Tour and other Fine Peaks - Climbing in the Alps" *

*by Phil Bates*

*Beckman Institute Auditorium, Caltech*

*Free pizza and beer!*
*Doors open 6.30pm, talk at 7pm*

The *Spaghetti Tour*, is what Swiss guides affectionately call the high
mountain route from the Breithorn to Monte Rosa. The Monte Rosa chain
contains the most concentrated cluster of 4000m peaks in the Alps. These
peaks are located along the Swiss-Italian border above the mountain
villages of Zermatt in Switzerland and Breuil-Cervinia in Italy. The name
Spaghetti is gained from the fact that most of the high mountain huts
reside in Italy, where pasta is the main dinner course. The other peaks
that will be presented are in the famed Mischabel region above Saas-Fe
Switzerland.
