Roche de la Muzelle, Mountain summit in Isère, France
The Roche de la Muzelle reaches an elevation of 3,465 meters and stands as the westernmost peak of the Massif des Écrins mountain range.
The first recorded ascent of Roche de la Muzelle occurred on July 2, 1875, when William Augustus Coolidge climbed with guides Ulrich and Christian Almer.
The mountain serves as a symbol of French alpinism, with its northeast ridge route established by mountaineers Bouvier and Clerc in 1928.
Climbers begin their ascent from the Muzelle refuge at 2,115 meters, following grassy slopes eastward before traversing the glacier toward Jean-Martin pass.
The mountain presents a distinctive pyramidal silhouette that emerges above the surrounding valleys, featuring a permanent glacier on its northern face.
