View from Diavolezza

When I stepped off the Rhätische Bahn train at Val Bernina, the base station for the cable car to the
top of Diavolezza, it did not look promising for photography, with a heavy overcast obscuring the view.

But, as the cable car broke out of the clouds, smiles broke out on passengers, as the majesty of the highest
peaks in the Bernina Range of Switzerland's Canton Graubünden provided a stunning autumn panorama.

One can see the Val Bernina, far below, was still shrouded in cloud cover.

Diavolezza (lit: "Little She Devil") tops out at 2,973 metres (9,754 ft).
