Sölden, Austria (pano)

I took a group of 14 to Austria (and a little bit into Italy and Germany) for a couple of weeks this month. We drove down the Ötztal on the way to the pass into Italy and stopped to get this view above Sölden. This was 7 frames stitched in LR.
We had come from Innsbruck, where two days prior it had rained hard in the morning, later revealing snow on the mountains. It made for a beautiful drive down this valley.
If the name of the valley rings a bell, it was just south of here (barely into Italy) that the mummified man was found by hikers in 1991 and later nicknamed Ötzi. From 2011 to 2018, Sölden was the training base for the U.S. Men's Ski Team.
From here we drove south over the Timmelsjoch Pass into Italy. The Italian side of the pass is one of the most beautiful drives I know of, but I haven't made it to those photos in my post work yet.

Incredibly beautiful! Sharp focus! One thing though, I would “erase” the cable in the upper right from the photo. It detracts from the beauty. 🙂
