This picture shows the Junction of the Glacier de Taconnaz and the famous Glacier des Bossons. The latter glacier is passed on the first day's climb, which takes the traveller to the Grand Mulets (10,030 ft.). The total height of Mont Blanc is 15,782 ft., and the first practicable route to the summit was discovered in June, 1786, by Balmat and Paccard. The minimun cost of climbing Mont Blanc is estimated at from £11 to £12.

Condition is Very Good.
