THE ALPS.
Reading edition
Original
How should you like to live up here? If you like snow you would have it in plenty. This is a portion of the Alps. On their heights snow is always to be found.
But where they approach the open, level country, which is much warmer, they are often crowned with large forests. Vast masses of ice and snow often separate from the mountains, and rolling down, overturn everything in their course, and sometimes cause great loss of life.
