海拔7556米的贡嘎雪山，在藏语里，贡是冰雪，嘎是白色，这座蜀山之王意为“白色冰山”。

贡嘎山位于川藏交界处，主峰海拔7556米，是闻名世界的横断山系第一高峰。在藏语中，“贡”是雪，“嘎”是白，其意思就是“洁白的雪峰”。贡嘎山主峰周围林立着145座冰峰，群山连绵起伏、险峰簇拥、白雪皑皑，是雪域高原上的神山，被视作世界第一高峰珠穆朗玛峰的妹妹。多年以来，贡嘎山与海螺沟隐秘在高原之上，蒙着神秘的面纱，不为世人所熟知。

川西高原的大雪山是雅砻江与大渡河的分水岭，而大雪山最高峰是贡嘎山，海拔约7556米，位于甘孜州，是四川省第一高峰，也是横断山脉第一高峰，称为“蜀山之王”

如果将贡嘎山比喻为一个康巴汉子，那么“天上”的贡嘎是他洁白的雪峰，如同至高无上、傲视群雄的头颅；而“人间”的贡嘎，则是他茂密的植被，如同华美的服饰，肥腰、长袖、大襟满身珠玉及亮丽而厚重的色彩，显得英气逼人。
