Mont Blanc Massif from Verbier.No. 0141 142 143 144 145 146 147 Panorama 10 final. 21.03.18, 13:07:06 . par Izakigur Via Flickr : No. 0141 142 143 144 145 146 147 Panorama 10 final. 21.03.18, 13:07:06 . " Massif du Mont-Blanc Massifs des Alpes occidentales Massif des Alpes Géographie Altitude4 809 m, Mont Blanc MassifAlpes Superficie400 km2 Administration PaysDrapeau de la France France Drapeau de l'Italie Italie Drapeau de la Suisse Suisse Région Région à statut spécial CantonAuvergne-Rhône-Alpes Vallée d'Aoste Valais DépartementsHaute-Savoie, Savoie Le massif du Mont-Blanc est un massif montagneux des Alpes franco-italiennes, où se dresse le mont Blanc, plus haut sommet d'Europe occidentale qui culmine à 4 809 mètres (altitude relevée en 2015). Il est traversé par le tunnel du Mont-Blanc, entre Chamonix dans la vallée de l'Arve et Courmayeur dans la vallée d'Aoste. The Mont Blanc massif (French: Massif du Mont-Blanc; Italian: Massiccio del Monte Bianco) is a mountain range in the Alps, located mostly in France and Italy, but also straddling Switzerland at its northeastern end. It contains eleven major independent summits, each over 4,000 metres (13,123 ft) in height. It is named after Mont Blanc (4,808 metres (15,774 ft)), the highest point in western Europe and the European Union. Because of its considerable overall altitude, a large proportion of the massif is covered by glaciers, which include the Mer de Glace and the Miage Glacier – the longest glaciers in France and Italy, respectively. Not only does the massif form a watershed between the vast catchments of the rivers Rhône and Po, as well as a tripoint between France, Italy and Switzerland, it also marks the border between two climate regions by separating the northern and western Alps from the southern Alps. The mountains of the massif consist mostly of granite and gneiss rocks, and at high altitudes the vegetation is an arctic-alpine flora. The valleys that delimit the massif were used as communication routes by the Romans until they left around the 5th century AD. The region has remained of some military importance through to the mid-20th century. A peasant farming economy operated within these valleys for many centuries until the glaciers and mountains were discovered by the outside world in the 18th century. Word of these impressive sights began to spread, and Mont Blanc was finally climbed in 1786, marking the start of the sport of mountaineering. The region is now a major tourist destination, drawing in over six million visitors per year. It provides a wide range of opportunities for outdoor recreation and activities such as sight-seeing, hiking, rock climbing, mountaineering and skiing. Around one hundred people a year die across its mountains and, occasionally, bodies have been lost and entombed in its glaciers for decades. Access into the mountains is facilitated by cable cars, mountain railways and mountain huts which offer overnight refuge to climbers and skiers. The long-distance Tour du Mont Blanc hiking trail circumnavigates the whole massif in an 11-day trek of 170 kilometres (110 mi). The Mont Blanc Tunnel connects the French town of Chamonix on the northern side with the Italian town of Courmayeur in the south. The high mountains have provided many opportunities for scientific research, including neutrino measurements within the Tunnel and impacts of climate change on its highest slopes. Recent rises in average temperatures have led to significant glacial retreat across the massif and an awareness of the need for better environmental protection, including a call for World Heritage Site status."

The Mighty Eiger reflected in a puddle . Trift, Grindelwald. Canton of Bern. Switzerland. Izakigur No. 3041. 27.08.18, 09:59:15 by Izakigur The Mighty Eiger reflected in a puddle . Trift, Grindelwald. Canton of Bern. Switzerland. Izakigur No. 3041. 27.08.18, 09:59:15 With admiration to Ueli Steck . "Ueli Steck (German: [ˈyːli ʃtɛk]; 4 October 1976 – 30 April 2017) was a Swiss rock climber and mountaineer. He won two Piolet d'Or awards, in 2009 and 2014. He was also famous for his speed records on the North Face trilogy in the Alps. Steck died on 30 April 2017 after falling during an acclimatizing climb for an attempt on the Hornbein route on the West Ridge of Everest without supplemental oxygen. Steck had previously summited Mount Everest on May 18, 2012, and he also summited Ama Dablam that year. "Ueli Steck (* 4. Oktober 1976 in Langnau im Emmental; † 30. April 2017 am Nuptse, Nepal; Übername: Swiss Machine) war ein Schweizer Extrembergsteiger.[1] Er galt als einer der weltbesten Solokletterer und war vor allem durch sehr schnelle Begehungen hochalpiner Routen bekannt. Der gelernte Zimmermann lebte mit seiner Frau zuletzt in Ringgenberg bei Interlaken. Am 30. April 2017 kam er bei einem Bergunfall am Nuptse unweit des Mount Everest ums Leben. Ueli Steck est un alpiniste suisse, né le 4 octobre 1976 à Langnau im Emmental (Suisse) et mort le 30 avril 2017 au Népal sur les pentes du Nuptse. Il a travaillé comme charpentier avant de devenir alpiniste professionnel. Il est notamment connu pour ses ascensions en solitaire et ses records de vitesse. Il est aussi un des ambassadeurs des « speed climbers » qui depuis environ 30 ans dynamitent les mythes de l'alpinisme en réalisant des ascensions à un rythme extraordinaire."

Winter paradise in Rotenboden. Zermatt. Switzerland.No. 4195. by Izakigur Winter paradise in Rotenboden. Zermatt. Switzerland.No. 4195. Thank You my brother...! Thank You Nikon company for Nikon D-700 ! The Matterhorn , the Symbol of Switzerland. Winter paradise the famous Gornergrat. The Matterhorn (German), Monte Cervino (Italian) or Mont Cervin (French), is a mountain in the Pennine Alps on the border between Switzerland and Italy. Its summit is 4,478 meters (14,690 ft) high, making it one of the highest peaks in the Alps. The four steep faces, rising above the surrounding glaciers, face the four compass points. The mountain overlooks the town of Zermatt in the canton of Valais to the north-east and Breuil-Cervinia in the Aosta Valley to the south. The Theodul Pass, located at the eastern base of the peak, is the lowest passage between its north and south side. Le Cervin (Cervino en italien, Matterhorn en allemand) est un sommet alpin de 4 478 mètres d'altitude, situé sur la frontière italo-suisse, entre le canton du Valais et la vallée d'Aoste. Le Cervin est la montagne la plus connue de Suisse, notamment pour l'aspect pyramidal qu'elle offre depuis le village de Zermatt, dans la partie alémanique du canton du Valais. L'ascension de la face nord fut considérée comme le dernier des grands exploits de l'alpinisme dans les Alpes, avec celle de l'Eiger et celle des Grandes Jorasses qui forment ensemble les trois grandes faces nord des Alpes.. https://flic.kr/p/Q3Tmmi

The mountain lies in a range called the Graian Alps, between the regions of Aosta Valley, Italy, and Haute-Savoie, France. The location of the summit is on the watershed line between the valleys of Ferret and Veny in Italy and the valleys of Montjoie Valley and Arve Valley in France. The Mont Blanc massif is popular for mountaineering, hiking, skiing, and snowboarding. The three towns and their communes which surround Mont Blanc are Courmayeur in Aosta Valley, Italy, and both Saint-Gervais-les-Bains and Chamonix in Haute-Savoie, France — the latter being the site of the first Winter Olympics. A cable car ascends and crosses the mountain range from Courmayeur to Chamonix, through the Col du Géant. Begun in 1957 and completed in 1965, the 11.6 km (7¼ mi) Mont Blanc Tunnel runs beneath the mountain between these two countries and is one of the major trans-Alpine transport routes.
