Pointe du Charbonnier, Alpine summit in Vanoise massif, Savoie, France.
The Pointe du Charbonnier reaches an elevation of 3,311 meters and features a northern face covered by the Leisse glacier.
The Charbonnier glacier, which once covered the western slope of the mountain, has completely disappeared due to climate changes.
The Leisse mountain shelter serves as a traditional starting point for mountaineers attempting to reach the summit.
The ascent requires crampons for crossing glacial sections, particularly when traversing the Leisse glacier portion of the route.
The summit provides a direct view of the Pointe de la Sana, which reaches 3,436 meters in the same mountain range.
