    Frameless packs

    I walked the Frances last year with a frameless Montbell Versalite 30L pack. I had no issues or problems and I have handed my Osprey into the Charity Shop. I am starting the Via Serrana on Saturday and have the Montbell as does my walking companion.

    Trekking poles in my carry on luggage

    What clothes do you wear after shower

    I have the enormous privilege to walk Caminos with great respect for the fellowship of others. I wouldn’t dream of upsetting or causing distress to any Albergue dweller. For sure, I do enjoy a good story/joke/laugh. So, Sharon if you do see a naked man entering the dormitory carrying a whip...

    Pack Review

    Thanks, I will order on line. I don’t begrudge the cost of the rucksack but I get ticked off at the high price of delivery/ postage

    Pack Review

    Dave, thanks for your comprehensive writing on the Ranger 35. Would you, or anyone else on the thread, know if there is a shop in London where I can buy this rucksack?

    My draft winter Camino Frances packing list

    You have a list....that's very impressive. I keep looking at it and scratching my head. I am re-starting in Burgos on Thursday and should get to Santiago and be home in time for Christmas dinner. There's not a thing to add or take away from your inventory, well I always take ziplock poly bags...
