Walking Through Snow Drifts in Foncebadon

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
To me, that walk to Molinaseca is challenging in good weather!
On slippery ice and snow it could be deadly.
I wish them safety.
 
A friend in Santiago told me on Thursday that the snow was 1m deep in O Cebreiro. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

A meter? Maybe, but it looks like less. The hill up to O Cebreiro could be a lot worse.

A couple of weeks ago I traded boots with a peregrina whose new ones had sprung a bad leak. She took my rather well-worn TImberlands off toward O Cebreiro and points west, where the snow and rain was coming down good and steady.

She and her husband (and the boots, whom she named "Beckies") made it today to Santiago de Compostela, none the worse for all that wear! It is wild out there, but not insurmountable. Ultreia!

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.
Wow!!! My favourite day on the whole hike was crossing through the snow in the pyrenees, perhaps I need to do the hike in winter also. What a challenge that would be! I imagine it would be a lot slower going..
