GGaryRobArms replied to the thread Would it be overkill to bring both a rain jacket and the Altus poncho in Oct/Nov?.I wish I had brought all three, as per MikeJS’s approach. I’m currently in last bit of the Camino Del Norte, with just a poncho. There have been several days of showers that the poncho was ideal for. However there has also been 3 days where it...

GGaryRobArms replied to the thread Ground conditions - Camino Del Norte.It was very good! You’re right, seeing how long humans have been in the area and how they lived is amazing.

Like.
GaryRobArms if you are still in Santillana del Mar and haven't done it yet, I recommend you walk or taxi 2 km south to the Museo Altamira. The 16,500 year old cave paintings will blow your mind. Buen Camino -
GGaryRobArms replied to the thread Ground conditions - Camino Del Norte.I’m 13 days into the Camino del Norte from Irun, currently in Santillo del Mar. There were mud patches on the forest trail portions, esp before Bilbao, but most of it was dry. I had to do some edging around and leaping at some spots. I’m wearing...
