MONT BLANC/JORASSES/VERTE and 33 MOUNTAIN CHAINS of the AOSTA VALLEY & SURROUNDINGS

AOSTA VALLEY 360° from West to East and from East to West in TOPOGRAPHIC clockwise system and order from Seigne Pass towards Seigne Pass (PARTS A+B+C+D+E+F+G).

SEVENTH PART (G)
:

PART G)- AOSTA VALLEY PART F)-SOUTHERN PARTIAL HALFCIRCULAR PERIMETER (40°~) OUTSIDE AREA from East to West and INSIDE AREAS to North and towards ISERE Valley (FRANCE)

This area, which continues towards West the Mountain Chain of Gran Paradiso, affects the GRAIAN CENTRAL to the Range Rutor and, more specifically, the Col de la Seigne, where shall start on the Mont Blanc Massif. In fact it is an arbitrary allocation and artificial, even if correct, valid from Geological point of view, since the Graian are a unique set, between the Cottian and Pennine Alps. The division, also corroborated through the famous "reads" by Dante Alighieri: "But (Maritime) with (Cottian) great (Graian) worth (Pennine) the (Lepontines) bears (Carnian and Rhaetian) down (Julian)" more and more, alas, unknown to the students, it is still valid and retains its classic and traditional distribution from the point of view of Geography. That's why we have included the Graian Southeast, not just Eastern, as opposed to those of the Northwest, or the Mountain Chain of Mount Blanc to the Ferret Hill, on the border with Switzerland. A great divide semicircular, starting from Piedmont, passing from France to conclude with the Mount Dolent, at the top of three Nations and the aforementioned hill, where the chain has its origin to the East of the Pennine Alps (from the Celtic Pen, ie Summit).
In our turn we split subtitles for this area (the number 14 to 17) highlighting the peaks of greater importance and those tiny subgroups belonging to the same, so as to highlight important Nodes Topographical or small areas in their own right and of some importance, knowledge and attendance mountaineering.
In this area, which includes the Valleys of Valgrisenche, La Thuile and its branch to the Little Saint Bernard Pass, he has held a direction diametrically opposite to that on the Gran Paradiso (again excluding the part towards the border with the France), or the crossings are described starting from Italian territory to conclude in this Transalpine.

Quest'area, prolungante ad Ovest la Catena del Gran Paradiso, interessa le Alpi GRAIE CENTRALI insino alla Catena del Rutor e, più specificatamente, al Col de la Seigne, ove prende inizio il Massiccio del Monte Bianco. In realtà é una suddivisione arbitraria ed artificiale, anche se valida e corretta dal punto di vista Geologico, poiché le Alpi Graie sono un'insieme unico, compreso tra le Cozie e le Pennine. La suddivisione, avvalorata anche dalla famosa "recita" di Dante Alighieri: "Ma (Marittime) con (Cozie) gran (Graie) pena (Pennine) le (Lepontine) reca (Retiche e Carniche) giù (Giulie)", sempre più, ahimé!, sconosciuta agli studenti, rimane sempre valida e conferma la classica e tradizionale ripartizione dal punto di vista della Geografia. Ecco perché abbiamo inserito le Alpi Graie del Sudest, e non semplicemente Orientali, in contrapposizione a quelle del Nordovest, ovvero della Catena del Monte Bianco fino al Colle Ferret, al confine con la Svizzera. Un grande spartiacque semicircolare che, iniziando dal Piemonte, passa dalla Francia per concludere con il Mont Dolent, al vertice di tre Nazioni ed al succitato colle, dove verso Oriente prende origine la Catena delle Alpi Pennine (dal Celtico Pen, ossia Sommità).
A nostra volta abbiamo diviso per sottotitoli questa zona (dal numero 14 al 17) mettendo in rilievo le Vette di maggiore importanza e quei minuscoli sottogruppi appartenenti alle medesime, tali da evidenziare importanti Nodi Topografici o piccole aree a se stanti e di una certa importanza, conoscenza e frequentazione alpinistica.
In quest'area, che comprende le Valli di Valgrisenche, La Thuile e relativa diramazione verso il Passo del Piccolo San Bernardo, s'é tenuto un senso di marcia diametralmente opposto a quello concernente il Gran Paradiso (anche qui esclusa la parte verso il confine con la Francia), ovvero le traversate son descritte con partenza dal territorio italiano per concludere in quello d'Oltralpe.

BERRIO BLANC & MOUNT CRAMMONT Subgroup from Northeast,

by andrea.it





^^^^^^^


We are going to observe and analyze these four areas, all internal to the Valley of Aosta and between the Gran Paradiso Massif, to the East, and the Mount Blanc Mountain Chain in the Northwest. These include the Valleys:
1)- Rhemes Notre Dame and Saint George, where flows the river of the same name and Dora di Rhemes which originates from the hill of the same name and that of Fond famous hills and difficult routes in the past.
2)- Valgrisenche, in the local dialect Valgrisenza or Grey Valley, with its Dora that originates from the Glacier de la Grande Glairetta between Sassière and Beak of Traversière (East).
3)- Valley of La Thuile, always with his Dora, who hails from the great ice expanses between the Chateau Blanc and the Head of the Rutor to the East, Becca du Lac in South and Great Assaly in West.
4)-: Valley of Little Saint Bernard with the Torrent Verney, who hails from the slopes of the famous mountain pass on the border with France, the route for centuries and, unfortunately, by the armies entrance to Italy. An alternative to the Mount Blanc Tunnel, however, is only open for 7/8 months of the year, given the significant accumulation of snow in the winter season. This great valley flows into the Valley of La Thuile right in the Tourist Resort of this name; numerous secondary small valleys (Breuil- Tormotta, Orgère and Chavannes) down to the same direction with waters from North to South and from East to West, after La Thuile Centre.
5)-: Val Vény with small vallons that come from the watershed ridge formed by the preceding walloons and such as slide and merge their waters in the Dora di Veny, formed by the valleys and those from previous slide and merge their waters in the Dora di Veny, one of the two branches, together with that of Ferret, that give rise to Baltea Stream, gathering just beyond the important Tourist Center of Courmayeur, at the foot Mount Blanc.

These chains are divided into:
a)-:
Group of the Great Sassière going to join, after the Mont Hill important, than the Rutor. It is already the border ridge with the Isère Valley and, in the "high" with the Vanoise National Park .
b)-:
Group of Rutor reaches Planaval Pass and then get up again in the Subgroup of Mount Paramont (mountain that covers the repair or upstream). In our work we have shown how autonomous this small subgroup.
c)-: Northwest branch to the Head of the Rutor to Becca du Lac and the Great Assaly through long border ridge that reaches the Little Saint Bernard Hill.
d)-: Subgroup of Punta Léchaud that actually turns out to be the continuation of the border ridge to the Seigne Pass, here we dealt with separately by including all Appendices mountain to the East of the same.

GREAT SASSIERE & GREAT ASSALY into Clouds from North-northeast,

^^^^^^^


Andiam ad osservare ed analizzare queste quattro aree, tutte interne alla Valle di Aosta e comprese tra il Massiccio del Gran Paradiso, ad Est, e la Catena del Monte Bianco a Nordovest. Esse comprendono le Valli di:
1)-: Rhemes Notre Dame e Saint George, ove scorre il torrente omonimo o Dora di Rhemes traente origini dal colle omonimo e da quello del Fond, celebri e difficili passi percorsi nel passato.
2)-: Valgrisenche, in patois o dialetto locale Valgrisenza ovvero Valle Grigia, con la sua Dora originantesi dal Glacier de Glairetta tra la Grande Sassière ed il Becco della Traversière (Est).
3)-: Valle di La Thuile, sempre con la sua Dora, che proviene dalle grandi distese glaciali comprese tra il Chateau Blanc e la Testa del Rutor ad Est, dalla Becca du Lac a Sud e dalla Grande Assaly ad Ovest.
4)-: Valle del Piccolo San Bernardo con il Torrente Verney, proveniente dalle pendici del famoso valico al confine con la Francia, percorso da secoli e, purtroppo, dalle armate in ingresso verso l'Italia. Alternativo al Tunnel del Monte Bianco é però aperto per soli 7/8 mesi all'anno, visto il notevole accumulo delle nevi nella stagione invernale. Questo grande vallone confluisce nella Valle di La Thuile proprio nel Centro Turistico di questo nome; numerosi valloni secondari (Breuil-Tormotta, Orgère e Chavannes) discendono verso il medesimo con direzione delle acque da Settentrione a Sud e da Est ad Ovest, dopo La Thuile.
5)-: Val Vény con valloncelli che provengono dalla cresta spartiacque formata dai precedenti valloni e tali da far scorrere e confluire le loro acque nella Dora di Vény, uno dei due rami, insieme a quello di Ferret, che danno origine alla Dora Baltea, riunificandosi appena oltre l'importante Centro Turistico di Courmayeur, ai piedi del Monte Bianco.

Queste catene si dividono in:
a)-:
Gruppo della Grande Sassière che va ad unirsi, dopo l'importante Col du Mont, a quello del Rutor. Costituisce già cresta di confine con la Valle dell'Isère e, nella parte "alta" con il Parco Nazionale della Vanoise.
b)-:
Gruppo del Rutor raggiunge il Passo di Planaval per poi rialzarsi nuovamente nel Sottogruppo del Mont Paramont (monte che ripara o copre il monte). Nel nostro lavoro abbiamo evidenziato come autonomo questo piccolo sottogruppo.
c)-: diramazione a Nordovest dalla Testa del Rutor verso la Becca du Lac e la Grande Assaly tramite lunga cresta di confine raggiungente il Colle del Piccolo San Bernardo.
d)- Sottogruppo della Punta Léchaud, che in realtà risulta essere la prosecuzione della cresta di frontiera fino al Colle della Seigne; qui l'abbiam trattata a parte inserendo anche tutte le Appendici montuose ad Oriente della medesima.
