About chalet Bivacco Giuseppe Lampugnani - Giancarlo Grassi (Eccles)

Itálie

It was built in 1939, then swept away by an avalanche in 1952 and later rebuilt in 1958 in a safer position. In 2011, it was replaced by a new bivouac in an even safer and more stable location, while the old bivouac became part of the museum arrangement of the Bard Fortress.
It is located on the southwestern ridge of Pic Eccles. Named after climbers Giuseppe Lampugnani and Giancarlo Grassi according to CAAI, it is also referred to as the "Eccles bivouac" due to its proximity to the peak of the same name. It is equipped with blankets and mattresses and has no running water or lighting.
The bivouac is the starting point for ascents to Mont Blanc via the Brouillard, Freney, and Innominata ridges. Ascent to Aiguille Blanche de Peuterey.
Access is from the Monzino hut (2580 m) in about 5-7 hours.
