The chalet is named after Margaret Claudia Brevoort, also known as Miss Brevoort and Meta Brevoort. She embodied the intrepid spirit of 19th-century mountaineering. Born in New York in 1825, she made history with her memorable first ascents during the golden age of mountaineering, becoming the first woman to climb such prestigious peaks as the Grandes Jorasses, the Jungfrau, the Weisshorn and many others. Her name remains engraved in the annals of mountaineering, and Brevoort Point, named in her memory, perpetuates her legacy. Her determination paved the way for other intrepid women in the mountain world.
