Shelter built by the glaciologist Louis Agassiz, Aar glacier, Switzerland, 1840 (1885)

Shelter built by the glaciologist Louis Agassiz, Aar glacier, Switzerland, 1840 (1885). Agassizs studies of glaciers in the Alps led him to be the first to propose the theory that the Earth had been subjected to Ice Ages. He built this shelter, known as the Hotel de Neuchatelois around a huge boulder on the Aar glacier during his 1840 expedition. From Louis Agassiz: His Life and Correspondence by Elizabeth Cary Agassiz. (Boston, 1885)
