The Mont Blanc Massif 100 Finest Routes

The Mont Blanc Massif is a true classic, an iconic mountaineering work of art.
In it, Gaston Rebuffat – one of the finest mountaineers of his generation –
presents his 100 greatest climbs in the Mont Blanc range, the finest and most
accessible alpine climbing area in the world.

This celebrated large-format guidebook remains the classic coffee-table guide
to the greatest range in the Alps. As inspirational as it is informative, this
book contains both beautiful photos and clear topos, thoroughly exciting
writing and concise route directions. Its inspiring commentary has encouraged
countless novice mountaineers and its wide spread of routes has sent numerous
experienced alpinists out on new climbs.

This latest edition contains many additional historical notes and photos and
also advice on previous training areas that are no longer useful as a result
of climate change. An alternative route is added to replace the celebrated
Bonatti Pillar of the Dru that collapsed in June 2005.

That the book remains as popular as ever, 20 years after the author’s death,
is a testament to Rebuffat and clear proof of the book’s enduring relevance.
