Monviso (3'841m) seen from the Rif. Giacoletti (2'741m).
Monviso (or Monte Viso) is
the 10th most prominent peak in the Alps, and at least 500m higher than any peak around it.
After we completed our Giro del Monviso, I drove up a fairly nearby pass, and took a picture which shows clearly just how prominent Monviso is.
Here it is.
