Changing the face of Europe


Has your mapmaker gone off her head or has Europe been redesigned on the quiet?I refer to your news story about the recent avalanches (Travel Weekly March 1).



Looking at your map, Chamonix and Mont Blanc have parted company, Zermatt and Saas-Fee are now in France, Chamonix is inSwitzerland, Zermatt and Saas-Fee have moved to the north – they should be level with Chamonix. Lech is now inGermany and Fully, Verbier and Evolene (Swiss resorts) have moved to the French Jura. I thought your business was travel. Thank goodness I wasn’t buried in an avalanche – with your map, help would never have found me.
