Excerpt from Dolomite Strongholds: The Last Untrodden Alpine Peaks, An Account of Ascents of the Croda Da Lago, the Little and Great Zinnen, the Cinque Torri, the Fünffingerspitze, and the Langkofel The many charms of the Dolomite Mountains - their varied surfaces, romantic outlines, distinct individualities, and, above all, their marvellous colouring - had exercised a fascination over me, long before I learned that a few of these enchanting peaks had a reputation of their own from a moutaineering point of view. There are, perhaps, a hundred of them in all, of various shapes and sizes, none rising above 11, 000 feet, and few of them failing to attain a nearly approximate altitude.
