The trail crested over a hillside mound that revealed a familiar landscape. A short distance ahead in the foreground of the glacier’s edge, I could see a flat plateau where I once camped two nights with Tim, two International Mountain Guides and three other climbers back in August of 2012. The glacier, having a significantly greater ice surface at that time, extended lower down the mountain and snow covered mass areas at a lower elevation. In fact, sections of the trail below the ridge were covered with snow. Today, however, the camp area had no trace of snow, only ice on the glacier.

Alpine Biome: Information Report By Kent McMahon 1. Introduction This Information Report will contain detailed information about the Alpine Biome of the European Alps. The Alps are one of the mountainous and coldest biomes in Europe. Despite these harsh conditions, the Alps support a rich biodiversity of 30,000 fauna and flora. Furthermore, detailed information about a specific fauna and flora species that have unique adaptations to survive in the Alpine climate, will also be contained in this information report.

I could see the whole mountain in all its beauty. I could see the trails covered in fresh, powder-like snow and the trees swaying in the wind.

Introduction Timbuktu is located in Mali, Sahara Desert, near the edge the Niger River. It was discovered as a World Heritage Site in 1988 and is listed on UNSECO as a cultural site.

Now in the 21st century, it is home of Koranic Sankore University.

Characteristics of an Alpine Biome: The Alpine biome is summed up as ice, snow, high winds, basic things that come with winter. Alpine biomes can be found all over the world in a variety of mountain regions. Usually they are at an altitude of 10,000 feet or more, and lies just below an snowline of a mountain. In the Rocky Mountains of North America you would first begin in a desert biome, Then as you proceed to climb through a brief forest biome, steppe biome, taiga biome, and grassland biome before you would actually reach the Alpine biome. During the summertime, temperatures in Alpine biomes reach around 40 to 60° F or 10 to 15° C, however, during winter, temperatures will well below go freezing, then if the altitude rises it can get even colder and can last from October to May.
