First snow at O Cebreiro

Hi,
Walked into leon today, the hills in the distance looked beautiful with the snow caps. Just one small problem for me i have to walk that way.

Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Yesterday's dusting of snow at O Cebreiro seems to have accumulated into a fair depth!
 
yes, the mountains visible on our northern horizon here in western Palencia are beautiful and white today. When I returned from Santiago on Sunday (19 Dec.) the mountains west of Villafranca were snow-covered, but not dangerously so.
Hazard Yet Forward, Pilgrims, and Merry Christmas to you all!

CRTVG has removed the O Cebreiro webcam from its web page, but the camera is still there if you use the above link. Most curious.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
They report up to 15c in Santiago in the next few days, so most of the snow at O Cebreiro should be gone within not too long... of course it might come back :)

Buen CaminO!

That is not snow that is after someone has thrown around some icing sugar. :D
 
It is not the first snow of the year, but it is snowing at O Cebreiro! With rain predicted for Lugo for the next couple of days, snow may continue at O Cebreiro.

See what it looks like in this 2010 video:
