You are right, the G. Paradiso is the highest summit, and Becca di Moncorvè should be considerered only a shoulder of G.P. south ridge.
On Photo id=1525 you can see the Becca from the normal route to GP (North): it'squite negligible.Probabily awarded as "mountain" because of the huge impressive South spur and wall: more than 600 m from the Moncorvè Glacier.
L'ho appena scoperta! Se riusciremo a ristrutturare le Alpi Occidentali, o Graie, o che altro, la cosa più importante per la visibilità delle pagine delle singole vette è una bella pagina interattiva del gruppo, in questo caso il Gran Paradiso.

Untitled CommentI am familiar with the term Graian Alps, but all I really know is that GP is its highest peak
Nice to have another one in the range. Good pix.
