After 2 snowy days in the mountain; one 30 km day with 8 km up and then one 20 k day going down to the base. It was a fantastic day of climbing and I was smart and put my last feminine pad into my boots in order to increase the comfort on a long day with lots of road. The views were terrific until we got chased the last 2.4 k up to the top. We stayed in a municipal albergue for the night while the storm carried on picking up in intensity. The room was boiling but it meant my shoes were dry by morning; between the newspaper and the furnace by my bunk.
Yesterday we climbed all the way down and started with 14 km on the road and 6 km using the snowy trail. With plastic bags in our shoes protecting our socks we risked the trail and it was a lot of fun. None of us were 100% prepared for it and it ended up coming to our knees in some places. Arrived in a really luxurious cheap albergue last night and got the best sleep we've had in a while waking up at 7 instead of 6.
Today we're walking through some rain and fog. At a cafe having some protein. Haven't had good WiFi for 2 days or so but now you're all caught up.
