The count Henry Russell (1834-1909) is an important figure of the exploration of the Pyrennees in XIX century. He climbed many first ascensions to a lot of mountains.
I remember other pages with words of russell in SP:
I like his poetic description of the mountains that I love in the book: "Souvenirs d'un montagnard" (I don't find in amazon this book in english). Spanish edition: Barrabes
Si, ya he visto que ya perteneces al club de los que hemos subido el Mont Blanc. Os debió hacer bueno porque os dio tiempo también a subir el Gran Paradiso... Bueno, la verdad es que os disteis mucha prisa en subir ambos
