    Buying Hiking Poles

    I would not throw them away if they could not to be recycled. However if I end up buying something that is a bit more than 4.99 E and that I might want to keep I would most likely as you suggested check them with my pack on the way home.

    Buying Hiking Poles

    Thank you for the advice. We will most likely end up discarding them as will not be checking our bags on the return home. It is nice to know that they can be recycled.

    Albergues from Baiona to Santiago de Compostela

    Thank you for mapping this out for me. I was trying to avoid the longer hike from Padron to Santiago. However I think your first suggestion makes the most sense due to our time constraints.

    Equipment Question 32L Osprey Kode pack

    Thank you. I will definitely try it out this summer before I do my Camino walk. I have mainly used it on winter snowshoeing treks. I agree accessing the back panel is a bit annoying. However it is a comfortable pack for me. I was just not sure how it would fare for summer use.
