I had a completely different experience. Kind, hospitable and incredibly helpful. Domingo even went and picked some pilgrims in his truck who were heading his way but struggling.
Big thanks to all for the advice, resources, recommendations & cautions for the Salvador and Primitivo. It is not falling on deaf ears.
Buen Camino!!

Thanks again Laurie!! It looks like a small bus trip after Buiza may have to happen. Do you know how that affects getting a Compostela for the Camino del Salavador? Although this is not critical for me, I thought I would ask.
Gerry
Good Morning Everyone,
I plan to start the Salvador, March 19th from Leon dependant on weather. Does anyone have information on the amount of snow currently on the Salvador?
Thanks in advance & Buen Camino!
Gerry
Hi Andrea,
When do you plan on leaving Leon? I should be arriving in Leon on March 18th and depending on when I arrive, leaving for Oviedo on that day or the 19th. I'm planning on 4 to 6 days to Oviedo and should arrive the 23rd or 24th.
FYI &........ Buen Camino!!
Gerry
Thanks for the suggestion Joe. I am set on the Primitivo right now and can't see that changing. (I want at some point to do the entire Frances) The only variable for me is checking the weather once I get to Leon and making a "Salvador" decision then and making my way to Oviedo, either way.
Buen...
Hi Laura, What date in March did you leave Leon and did you run into closed albergues along the Salvador? I am looking at some days of 30+k which doesn't concern me nor does the cold or rain. Thanks again for your input here.
Buen Camino!!
Gerry

Hi All.....Forgot about the Class of thread.... I will be leaving Vancouver, BC on or about the 15th of March 2016. I will be walking the Camino Primitivo finishing up with Muxia & Fisterre. Depending on the weather, I may start with the Camino del Salvator (Leon to Oviedo).
Buen Camino!!

Good Morning Lise, I've made some adjustments to my Camino based on my time available. I have a month and want to "take it all in" and not treat it like a race. So, I will be walking the Camino Primitivo from Oviedo to Santiago and on to Muxia and Fisterre. If the weather is agreeable, I will...
Yes, Aidan, that's my plan, finishing off this endeavor with a trip to the end of the earth and Laurie, the weather is in the for front.
Thanks for the input both of you.
Buen Camino!!
Gerry
Looking for general thoughts, input and all around comments. I have a month and would like make it an easy go rather than "blasting" through the Camino Frances. Like I said in a previous thread, I want a chance to smell the roses..... or the whatever.
Thanks for the help
Buen Camino!!
Gerry
