France does not recommend climbing Mont Blanc: “Falling stones, there is danger of death”

“Important stone falls”, “day and night”, occur along the French normal route to Mont Blanc which passes from the Gouter refuge due to “drought”. For this reason, the authorities on the other side of the Alps recommend that mountaineers wishing to make the ascent “postpone it temporarily”.

“Danger of death”, writes in a post the mayor of Saint-Gervais-Les-Bains (France), Jean-Marc Peillex.
