Description#
Pointe Carmen is one of the five Aiguilles du Diable granite spires on the south-east ridge of Mont Blanc du Tacul. It is normally taken during the complete Arête du Diable traverse.
The traverse is usually based at the Refuge des Cosmiques, reaches the Col du Diable, and crosses the spires toward Mont Blanc du Tacul. It combines high-altitude approach work with sustained rock climbing and descents.
