Pic du Béal Traversier, Alpine summit in Queyras Massif, France
Pic du Béal Traversier is a mountain summit in the Queyras Massif with steep rocky slopes that rise sharply above the surrounding terrain. The peak sits within an alpine landscape marked by exposed ridges and deep valleys that characterize this remote mountain region.
The peak formed through millions of years of geological processes that shaped the Queyras Massif into its current alpine structure. Tectonic activity and erosion carved out the steep slopes and ridges visible on the mountain today.
Local mountaineers maintain alpine traditions through regular ascents and the organization of the Grand Béal ski mountaineering competition on these slopes.
The climb demands good fitness and experience with alpine terrain and scrambling on rocky sections. Starting early in the day is advisable, and checking weather forecasts beforehand helps ensure safe conditions on the exposed slopes.
The peak maintains a notable isolation distance of 177 meters to its next higher neighbor, creating a distinct mountain profile in the landscape.
