The Aiguille Blanche de Peuterey (4,112 m) is a mountain of the Mont Blanc massif in Italy. It is considered the most difficult and serious of the alpine 4000-m mountains. There are three tops to the mountain: *''Pointe Güssfeldt'' (4,112 m) *''Pointe Seymour King'' (4,107 m) *''Pointe Jones'' (4,104 m) The three tops are named after Paul Güssfeldt, Henry Seymour King and Humphrey Owen Jones. ==Ascents== The highest point, ''Pointe Güssfeldt'', was first climbed by Henry Seymour King with guides Emile Rey, Ambros Supersaxo and Aloys Anthamatten on 31 July 1885. In July 1882, Francis Maitland Balfour, a young English professor, lost his life whilst attempting the as-yet-unclimbed summit of the Aiguille Blanche along with his guide Johann Petrus (an uncle of Joseph Knubel). C. D. Cunningham and Emile Rey watched anxiously and silently as the pair set off on the 18th, and it was Rey who was subsequently leader of the search party that brought back their bodies to Courmayeur. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aiguille Blanche de Peuterey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
