Take the blanket you’ll find somewhere for coffee or the albergue will have a stove.Not a serious one tho...
I have my loadout determined and have begun my training hikes. So far things seem ok, my winter camino pack is running about 16lbs without water which is right in my target zone for comfort. There is room in my pack for one more comfort item, both weigh about the same(within a couple ounces) and Im super up in the air which to take, or neither.
So for those who have walked a winter camino, should I consider taking:
MRS Pocket Rocket 2 camp stove kit, so I can make hot coffee or a quick hot soup pack between closed bars.
Or...
My comfy down hiking blanket. I sleep hot and have a silk liner and super warm clothing for those times that albergues don't have blankets, but darnit I love my snuggly blanket.
Or...
Neither.
Thanks all in advance. 79 days to go.

the down blanket
Personally I find buffalo to be very cost and weight effective.
Does the USA have Buffalo stockists?

Hi, I’m ready to set off my Camino French way on 10th of Nov. Did you know if there is any rucksack transportation to destination during winter time? I have checked so many famous agents but no service during this season. I’m worried my pack pain issue. And would like to find daily rucksack transportion.I have walked in winter before on sections of CF and CP. I would tip to taking the blanket but then I tip to cold and albergues do vary in heating and whether they have blankets. The stove might be a nice luxury on a couple of days when there are no bars. Having warmth and good water proof gear is the key to making it a pleasant camino. But I may look again at the hat, buff, bandanas - as it looks if I was packing my kit it would be a little too much
I saw Jacotrans picking up packs in Sahagún a few days ago. I was surprised because I had heard that no service operates during November except for Correos from Sarria on. I asked the person whose pack they picked up about it, and she said if you call them, you can set it up, even though it says online they don’t run in November.Hi, I’m ready to set off my Camino French way on 10th of Nov.

Hello,
Yes, I just got email feedback from Jacotrans.
They cab help but price is 25-35 Euro per rucksack,even just 20KM distance.
