Regeste Verlauf der Kantonsgrenzen im Bereich der Plaine Morte. Rechtsprechung zu kantonalen Grenzstreitigkeiten (E. 2). Der Vergleich vom 11. August 1871 zwischen den Kantonen Bern und Wallis über die Grenzziehung auf Gemmi und Sanetsch enthält keine vertragliche Regelung des Grenzverlaufs im Bereich der Plaine Morte (E. 3).

[Frost] og Funi, at the outskirts of Hveragerdi, first struck us as rather spare and utilitarian, with its row of small cabins built with gray industrial siding. The setting, however, was splendid. Poised next to a river bubbling with hot springs, it opened to a vista of mountains, waterfalls, and, in the far distance, a glistening white glacier. The guesthouse abounded in bathing facilities: a large swimming pool, geothermal sauna, outdoor shower, and a couple of "hot pot" Jacuzzis - small circular tubs, perfect, according to the owner, for sitting in "on a cold, starry winter's night. Whoever said so was surely right. The soup served to us had been absolutely delicious, and arrived with homemade bread and three superior dips, specialty of the house. However, the name wasn't the lobst...
