Mont Blanc Granite – a Rock Climbing Guide, Volume 4

Géant – Cirque Maudit – Vallée Blanche

Volume four of the MONT-BLANC GRANITE collection presents the best climbs in the pivotal Géant–Vallée Blanche Basin.
Lying in the heart of the Mont Blanc range, it is home to the world famous spires of the Dent du Géant, Grand Capucin and Aiguille du Midi, as well as the superb cliffs of the Cirque Maudit.
Elegant lines, huge walls and mostly excellent rock are just some of the reasons why these «high-altitude crags» are becoming increasingly popular.

135 promises of unforgettable days on rock.
The basin is served by two strategically located huts – Torino Hut (I) and Cosmiques Hut (F), each with its own character but all perfect base camps from which to sample the area’s delights.

This forth volume in the the Mont Blanc Granite series describes the best rock climbs in the glacial basin of the upper Vallee Blanche and the Cirque Maudit as well as the classic routes on, and around, the Dent du Geant.

Elegant lines, huge walls and mostly excellent rock are just some of the reasons why these high-mountain crags are becoming increasingly popular. Each area is served by a strategically located hut, each with its own character but all perfect base camps from which to sample the area’s delights.

As with the previous three volumes in this series, the guide is illustrated with both colour photo-topos and topo-diagrams, there’s comprehensive, and easy-to-follow, access information and a great selection of action shots… in English throughout..
