As well as the 50 major mountains, every significant subsidiary top is visited by one or more route.

In addition the valley bases, huts and hut approaches are described in detail, so that mountaineers can plan and execute their 4000m campaign without need to refer to any other texts. The guidebook builds on the Alpine Club`s long and distinguished pedigree of publishing regional guides to the Alps. Martin Moran brings his climbing passion and experience to add an inspirational flavour to the peak portraits and route descriptions. This 2012 revised reprint has a comprehensive update of the valley bases, huts and their approaches with new contact information including websites and email addresses.Plus revised information for many routes and grades including a new route on the Grand Combin – Traverse of Summits (& Descent of Arete de Boussine).
