[QUOTE="Canche, post: 1060287, member: 65903"] We were going from Puente de Pradera (I think) to Pajares. There was huge mountain and there were two yellow arrows and it was hard to tell which was correct. We thought it was straight up which was hell through nettles. Way up I checked the altitude and it was 5200 ft and the highest point on the San Salvador is about 4900 ft I think. I called the cops and they send they would send a patrol car. I told them a patrol car would never get up the trail but they didn't listen. So we told them we were going to go back the way we came, always 100% correct. When we got most of the way down we saw a big huge yellow arrow to the right toward the highway so we took it. In the meantime the cops called and wanted to know where we were. I explained,and we had to wait for them to come and take down out names and passport numbers, the usual beaurocratic stuff. Then they asked if we wanted a ride to Pajares. We said no. Worst mistake ever. We crossed the highway and followed the signs to Pajares until we came to a HUGE herd of cows and a big black bull sitting right at the entrance of the trail to Pajares. Well we just didn't think we could do that so we took a trail to the left for an hour in heat and path full of rocks to the town of San Miguel. We asked and were told Pajares was another hour uphill!!! The village had NOTHING. No store, no bar, nothing. I told a young lady there I needed a beer. She disappeared and came back with two beers and would not take a dime. Another Camino angel. There was an old man sitting there under the tree and I mentioned a taxi and bingo! he knew one called and the taxi too us up to Pajares! [/QUOTE]
