    OMM Classic 32L Backpack

    I'm planning to walk the Camino Frances again in October 2014. I walked in 2012 and can't wait to do it again. What would I do differently? The first thing is carry less. I am looking at new backpacks. I walked with a Gregory Z40 in 2012 and am looking at the OMM Classic 32L backpack. I want...

    Picture Request - Steps at the Magna Plant

    I know this sounds like a crazy request, but I walked the camino this year (Sep/Oct) and lost my iPhone on Day 2, somewhere between Zubiri and Larrasoana. It was Day 2, I was really tired and hot, knees hurting a bit from the descents and when I got to that staircase you have to walk down on...

    Laundry Detergent

    Based on what I've been reading, I should bring two sets of clothes on the Camino and wash clothes each night. Do people carry laundry detergent or do you buy enough each day from somewhere? This is probably a stupid question, but I've been wondering about it. Thanks.
