Hola,
The plan for Tio is to walk about seven or eight days of the Camino in September, not sure of the dates as yet. Going to start in St Jean and see where it takes me.
I've done a lot of hiking in Colorado and only recently started using hiking poles. I used them on Mt. Killi and a fourteener here near home; they were quite handy then. My question is: since I'll be crossing the mountains the first day, do I want to have them for the rest of the trip?
Lest I sound arrogant, I'm only looking at about 4500 feet of elevation gain the first day, but an apparently tricky descent (altitude won't be a problem since I live above 5280 in Denver). Also, I don't want to take anything that I absolutely, positively don't need for the entire walk.
Your comments will be most appreciated.
