This is a view from the Hochstubai hut to the west across the Otztal valley to the Otztal Alps. The roads below the snowline are part of the ski development around Solden. The high point in the distance is Wild Spitze, the second highest peak in Austria. I had made a ski ascent of this about four years earlier before a May avalanche conference, and there are pictures from that on this website as well. Solden is about 1300m, this photo is taken at almost 3200m - there is a lot of vertical relief in the Alps and the main valleys are very deeply cut.
