  • An Invitation to Mont Aiguille Jean-Paul Zuanon 83
    An invitation to Mont Aiguille Jean-Paul Zuanon Once known as one of the 'seven marvels of the Dauphine', Mont Aiguille which raises its proud outline 40 km S from Grenoble, is one of the most famous and typical summits of the French Alps. It is today one of the favour­ ite goals of Grenoble climbers, attracted by its bold appearance, its easy access and the variety of the climbs it offers. From a geological point of view, it is a part of the pre-alpine group of Vercors, a small scale version of the Dolomites, which offers many interesting climbs 300 or 400 m high; but while Vercors itself consists mainly of a single ridge, with summits little individualised, Mont Aiguille is a huge isolated block of limestone, vertical on every side and sepa­ rated from the main ridge by erosion. Even though it is of only a modest alti­ tude (2086 m), it is a very spectacular summit, that one discovers from far away. The N fa·ce raises an impressive yellow wall just above the green forest; narrow and slender, it really justifies this name of 'aiguille' (needle). On the contrary, the E face is much more massive and wider, and also more attractive for the climber who finds there not less than 7 very difficult routes. The great WSW face, not very separated from the proper W face is not to be seen from the valley; seldom vertical and of an easy access, this is the face of the historical routes; the relief is complicated, consisting of gendarmes, towers ('Vierge', 'Taureau', 'Gemeaux'), gullies and scree-ledges.

Ce territoire confidentiel a su conserver une certaine identité à travers une réelle authenticité. Ses paysages sont entretenus par une agriculture vivante (20% de Bio) mais sont également sauvages et d’une grande beauté. Le réseau de sentiers y est extraordinaire. Entre Drôme et Isère, entre Alpes et Provence, le Vercors, massif calcaire dressé tel une immense oasis montagneuse, recèle une infinie variété de paysages, de richesses naturelles préservées, une faune sauvage particulièrement importante. La découverte des Hauts Plateaux, la plus vaste réserve naturelle de France, et le Mont Aiguille détaché des Hauts Plateaux du Vercors par un caprice de la géologie, ressemblent à s’y méprendre aux paysages des Dolomites.
