Looks amazing! Jealous doesn't even begin to describe it...

Looks a bit better than when me and a mate where up there a few years ago.. it was 1c at the Hochtor. the tunnel just below was encrusted with ice. but.. the upside was we had the road effectively to ourselves and did its entire length 3 times.

There are a couple of cameras up there... and in other places too. And I would recommend anyone tempted to visit the Alps to have a look.
