Does anyone know the location of the photo on the ACA 2016 calendar?  My guess is Switzerland.  I'd like to know the specific road/pass this was taken on.

Hi,

I checked with our media department regarding the location of this photo. You are correct that it is in Switzerland. Unfortunately, we do not know the name of the pass.

Thanks for checking, but I just found this by changing my tactic and searching on the photographer's name.  Turns out that it's in Italy.
