Legende
The three transparent sources rise at the back of the hill, at the basis of which stand the small chalets or huts, as represented in the drawing, the author having taken the view from the top of a small plateau, or flat surface, which commands the extensive glacier of La Furca, and Icy Vault, from where issues a part of the Rhône, as described. On the right stands the mountain which bears its name, and on the left the basis of the Grimsel.
