Edelweiss. This white velvety flower is the desire of every tourist and the disaster of some, for it grows in places so steep and difficult that even chamois hunters themselves are shy of seeking it. It does not grow on the lower heights of the Alps but only at altitudes higher than 5,000 to 7,000 feet and therefore its possession is regarded as the "hallmark" of an Alpine Climber.
