I think flyingmonk took pictures on the other side of the world. Do the lake and mountains look similar at greater distance?

Larry, Isn't there also an Eagles Nest in your home state of N.M.?

Nice pics.

But I sure would hate to lose an engine there...

WOW blast from the past!

I learned to fly 30 miles north of there.

Swiss Alps

Samedan/St.Moritz

The flying qualities of the Buecker Jungmeister are closer to the RV's than any other airplane I've ever flown.
The one without the engine is pretty amazing too, winch start from Samedan
8000 feet climb to top off at 4200m over the Bernina Mountain.
