Mont Blanc continues to shrink and peaks at 4,805.59 meters

Every year it gets lower and lower. Mont Blanc has been measured again and the data gives 4,805.59 meters, or 2.22 meters less than during the previous measurement in 2021, the expert surveyors of Haute-Savoie announced on Thursday.

This level of variation may reflect summer rainfall variations and has already been observed in the past, noted Jean des Garets, president of the Haute-Savoie departmental chamber of surveyors during a press point in Chamonix. “Mont Blanc could very well be much higher in two years” during the next measurement, he stressed.
