I shot this pano during a road trip from Nice to the small village of Bousiéyas, in the Southern French Alps.

I stopped on route du Col de la Bonnette near Vens, and climbed up 80 meters to take the shots. Going up was okay, going down was a bit scary with 50-degree angle slopes and unsettled rocks to deal with.

The view shows a very small part of the beautiful Mercantour National Park. If you pan down, you may see the Tinée river.
