Punta Giordani, m. 4,046 a.s.l. it is a shoulder of the Vincent Pyramid.
It is a climb that can be easily done in one day from both Punta Indren and Passo dei Salati, adding an extra hour.

The name of the ridge is attributed to William Martin Conway, who visited it in 1884 accompanied by an Italian soldier, border guard in the year of cholera.
