History
The Aiguille Verte (French pronunciation:; 4,122 m (13,524 ft)), is a mountain in the Mont Blanc massif in the French Alps. Aiguille Verte is French for "Green Needle", which is the meaning commonly attributed to the name. However, some scholars suggest that "verte", or the root "ver" or "var", may derive from a pre-Celtic term meaning "high place", which would give Aiguille Verte the alternative meaning of "High Needle".
