Climbers on a snow ridge high on Mont Blanc

Mont Blanc

The Classic Summit of the Alps

Mont Blanc tops out at 4,808 meters (15,774 ft), and the Goûter route gets there over rock, snow and glacier, with nights in mountain huts along the way. That calls for a light alpine kit: insulated single boots, 12-point crampons, a helmet for the Goûter couloir and layers for a cold pre-dawn start. This collection is built from the personal gear lists guide services publish for a guided Goûter-route climb.
