    Beef Jerky?

    Ho Robo, I love it on hikes here in the states and would probably miss having some in my pack. But never having been to Spain, I did not realize what other choices there are. :)

    Starting in Burgos

    Hi Borja79 - since we both are going in November-December, we may run into each other along the way. I'm using a guide book but walking my own Camino and may not walk according to the pre-printed schedule that most guidebooks have. Buen Camino to you.

    Winter Lodging

    Thanks Jozero! I do have Brierley's guide book - wasn't sure how up to date since things change fast sometimes. Good to know you didn't have any issues other than 1x.

    Would anyone happen to know if there a list anywhere that comprise of just Albergues open during the winter months? SO many I look at close by November 1. Perhaps there isnt,, but I thought I would check before I walk starting mid November.
