View from the road Mon - Salouf across the Albula Valley with Tiefencastel (central bottom) in NE direction to Piz Linard (2767 m). The image was taken less than two days after a rock avalanche had detached from the highly unstable slopes of Piz Linard, narrowly missing the evacuated village of Brienz (right centre of the scene).
