Aiguille des Pélerins, Alpine summit in Mont Blanc massif, France
The Aiguille des Pélerins reaches an elevation of 3,318 meters and stands between the Aiguille des Deux-Aigles and Aiguille du Peigne in the Chamonix Needles.
The first ascent of Aiguille des Pélerins occurred on July 9, 1905, when Robert O'Gorman and Albert Brun reached the summit with guides Joseph Ravanel and Edmond Charlet.
This mountain ranks number 25 among the hundred finest climbs in the Mont Blanc massif, according to mountaineer Gaston Rébuffat's classification system.
Climbers access the summit from Chamonix Valley, with weather conditions playing a crucial role in determining the safety of any ascent attempt.
The Beyond Good and Evil route, established in 1992 by Andy Parkin and Mark Twight on the north face, introduced new methods in mixed climbing.
