Mont Pelvoux (3,946 m) is a mountain in the Massif des Écrins in the French Alps. For many years Mont Pelvoux was believed to be the highest mountain in the region since the higher Barre des Écrins cannot be seen from the Durance valley. The highest point on the mountain is ''Pointe Puiseux''. There are three subpeaks: * ''Pointe Durand'' (3,932 m) * ''Petit Pelvoux'' (3,753 m) * ''Trois Dents du Pelvoux'' (3,682 m) == Ascents == The first ascent of Mont Pelvoux was by Captain Durand and the two chamois hunters Alexis Liotard and Jacques-Etienne Matheoud on July 30, 1828. This party returned, with more people, to the summit in 1830. Both times they climbed the "Pointe Durand".〔Guillaume Christian, (La Première Ascension du Pelvoux en 1828 )〕 The highest point is named after the astronomer Victor Puiseux, who reached it first with his guide Pierre Antoine Barnéoud on August 9, 1848.〔W.A.B. Coolidge, (Victor Puiseux et la Première Ascension du Mont Pelvoux ), The Alpine Journal, Volume 19, 1898〕 Barnéoud had been the third guide in the 1830 re-ascent.〔 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「Mont Pelvoux」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
