I'm just busy reading Bonatti's book on his 1951 first ascent, which prompted me to look up the page on SP. Nice to see that Summitpost has all the information on the peak already!
Bonatti did some crazy stuff up there. The anecdotes about his abseil retreat on an earlier attempt are especially hair-raising!
Personally, I like to conserve vertical space on webpages. HTML tables would really help to make some sections, especially the route overview, more compact.

Re: Wonderful placeThank you very much, Charles. I also think, that the area of Grand Capucin is an unique place.
Cheers, Hiltrud
