Aiguille Supérieure du Clot de la Hount

Aiguille Supérieure du Clot de la Hount, Summit in Vignemale Massif, France

The Aiguille Supérieure du Clot de la Hount is a 3,115 m summit with 15 m of prominence on the west ridge of the Clot de la Hount, in the Vignemale Massif, Huesca province, Aragon. Aragonese sources give 3,117 m and place it on the east ridge of the Punda de ro Clot de ra Fuent, also called Penya Fiera Este.

The sources give no climbing history for this 3,115 m needle on the Clot de la Hount ridge; they record only its height, its 15 m prominence and its position on the west ridge of the Clot de la Hount in the Vignemale massif, Huesca province, Aragon. The Aragonese name Penya Fiera Este places it as the eastern counterpart of Penya Fiera Oeste.

Local herders named this place after a seasonal spring found in the area, with 'Hount' referring to the water source and 'Clot' describing a rocky ledge or hollow. This naming reflects how mountain communities marked important landmarks during their seasonal movements.

The summit sits on the east ridge of the Clot de la Hount, on the Franco-Spanish border between Torla-Ordesa and Cauterets, and is normally reached from the Vignemale Massif side. Its 15 m prominence means it is a minor point on the ridge rather than a separate objective, so plan it as part of a longer high route. Snow and ice persist on the ridge into summer; crampons and an ice axe are needed early in the season.

The name "Penya Fiera Este" is Aragonese, while the Catalan form is "Agulla Superior del Clot de la Hount"; the summit is the eastern of the two Penya Fiera needles on the east ridge of the Clot de la Hount. Its 15 m prominence means it is a secondary top, not an independent peak.
