Mont Blanc or Monte Bianco, meaning “White Mountain”, is the highest mountain in the Alps, Western Europe and the European Union. It rises 4,810 m (15,781 ft) above sea level and is ranked 11th in the world in topographic prominence. It is also sometimes called La Dame Blanche (the White Lady).
For many years, Johan Ernst Nilson has organized expeditions for private groups to this fantastic mountain almost every season. One year, Johan and his team had four different groups on the mountain, with as many as 35 clients on one single climb. Mt Blanc has also been a perfect mountain for Johan to practice on before leaving for places like Antarctica, Mt Everest, or the High Arctic.
