- Portuguese Coastal 2021 Frances Leon/Muxia2023
Walking the Camino Frances, since the 16th there has been a lot of mud on the trail but doable until today on the way to Pamplona! It got very difficult with the mud on the pass high up beside the river, a lot of slipping and squelching and ankle deep mud in places. Concentrating on the mud. I hadn't noticed the path had narrowed . I slipped tried to save myself with my right pole and there was nothing there I fell face down rolled on my back and then onto my front down the slope. I stopped exactly where I was on the edge of about a 30 or 40 foot drop. Managed to pull myself back on the path. Just as an Australian couple came along. Bent my walking poles cut my chest legs and arms! I decided to put this on the forum to get it off my chest as I can't tell my family as I've still got 3 weeks to go and those who know my circumstances will understand why I can't tell them. But I just needed to say what happened and to thank the angel that was looking over me yet again . Buen Camino Woody. Be careful
