Mountain Climbing
Is Perilous Sport
u. S. Has Many High Peaks
To Tempt Daring.

WASHINGTON. Tragedy rode an
avalanche down Mount Baker re-
Gently, and six of a party of Is
mountain climbers were killed.
Such loss of life is rare in the United
States, although less unusual in the
Alps, where mountain climbing was
developed as a sport.
Switzerland has more than so
peaks higher than the highest noun
tain top in the United States, Mount
Whitney, says the National Geo
graphic society. "A plane flying
over Switzerland at an altitude OF
$4,000 feet would find at least half a
hundred peaks to dodge.
I'm the United States, the plane
could drop to $4,000 feet and en-
counter about 60 named and meas
ured mountains shouldering their
way above the clouds. The United
States, however, has more than a

higher than, Mount Baker, wash

in CALIFORNIA; Sierra Nevada, Colo

White mountains of New Hamp-
shire. In these and several other
states American sportsmen pursue
the climbers thrill, the thin air un-
burdened with dust and fumes OF
lower attitudes, the cold quiet, the
feeling of mastery that comes from
victory in the primitive man-vs.-
mountain struggle.
Among .the Little Switzerlands'
of the United States, Colorado has
the greatest number of giant peaks,
mainly along the continental divide.
This state has more than three
fourths of the country's mountains
measuring $4,000 feet or higher. OF
