Mountaineer Survives
Three Days at Rope End
Over Alpine Chasm
CHAMONIX, France, UP — A
French mountain climber was
hauled to safety Tuesday after
dangling for three days at the end
of a rope over a dizzying Alpine
chasm.
Georges Barbachi, a young stu
dent at Paris University, had met
with disaster Saturday on “The
Fool’s Needle,” a sharp peak in
the Alps. He had been hurtled
from its side by a storm that took
the life of his companion.
He was rescued early Tuesday
afternoon and brought to Cham
onix. His condition was described
as satisfactory.
Barbachi’s companion fell to his
death in the chasm during a se
vere storm which whipped the
Alps Saturday morning.
Barbachi was slightly injured
when his guide rope brought him
up with a jerk and he bounced
against the almost vertical walls
of the chasm.
