Hansjörg Gstrein
operations manager, mountain lift company (Ötztal ski area, ~300 seasonal staff in winter) · Sölden, Ötztal, Tyrol
At four in the morning, Hansjörg Gstrein stands at the reservoir deciding whether the snow lances start up. At 49, he is operations manager of a large Ötztal mountain lift company, responsible for lift operations, snowmaking, and several hundred seasonal staff. Son of an alpine farmer whose land the lift company once leased — today he himself sits at the negotiating table with the very same agricultural cooperative. Safety-obsessed on duty, contradictory about his own risk.
