Some but not all, and other routes too.
My last piece of lightweight kit arrived yesterday, so i've just weighed everything and yet again packed the backpack with all the essentials. It comes in at 6.67 K, this includes 1.5 K of water but excludes any food I will need to take. I also have a bum bag that comes in at .62 K , so I shouldn't be over loaded. The backpack could be a lot light depending on the weather, but then the gear will be on my body, so six of one and half a dozen of the other.
Only 74 days to the start.
 
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.
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Walked Feb 2014 very nice time; I had a nice mix of solitude and company.

Mud. And, more mud. I actually prayed for mud free days.

Take a bag many albergues are un heated.

Buen camino.

Mud is not my favourite but If I encounter then I'll just have to put up with it. I will be taking a bag with me + silk liner.
Thanks for the advice.

Hola, I gearing up to start my 1st CdS and have seen people recommended sleeping bag liners to protect against bed bugs. Do these help or is it a myth? Should I add the extra weight of bringing one?

Well…… about $400 usd in socks and liners later and about 160 miles. I live in California near the Sierra mountains so we have some good trails and heat- I wanted to find my perfect combination...
