Watchfree Nightmare Campus

19 - March - 2011 La Mira

The group at the top of the Mira completely covered by snow .


Today is Father's Day, and then to congratulate those who are left with Navarredonda direction, where we will give a good account of coffee and muffins which Felix usually take the day coming up with us.
As we do not want to tempt fate and because of the day it is and how good the weather, we decided not to reach the platform (as we believe it will be crowded) and stay and begin the march from kilometer 6.
Since we know very well that we will not the kind of snow (although I presume), we put everything in the backpack, and began the march .


not want to go to look for sites and as usual this time of year and conditions of the mountain lends itself to it, we decided to change course and get into areas that are usually impractical by the amount of broom there.
From the outset we took the road to Puerto de Peon


but later we will turn to our right (to the height of Charco cure) and make a ridge covered with snow, which otherwise would impossible to climb it .


gorges cross the various paving the way


and then put on our crampons, we began the climb up the ridge us to the upper later crested.

From below, the area we chose to climb seemed shorter and less steep, but nothing is further from reality, it seems that we will not ever coming up and the way we require a constant effort .


As a result of all this, the group is breaking up and each requires its own pace, in order not to get up exhausted.


Are we seeing the end of the climb


and we're getting there slowly.


order to rest a few minutes, we at the top a small step stop and regain your strength by eating some fruit .


resume the road and we are leaving behind us the port area of \u200b\u200bthe Pawn, now we have a little ridge. The snow conditions are perfect in this area and this will make our way is lighter .


We passed
areas in which the slope is tilted enough and requires of us a greater concentration n.


already have an eye on the area behind the Galayos and follow the path heading toward the Mira .


Behind us we see the dry, dry channels, pending for one of the Pisapraos .


The sky is clear, the sun shines


and this makes any angle view of the snow covered peaks, is impressive .


The one concern that always makes surveying the landscape in search of new routes to .


We're almost there and this makes the group will be reuniting to reach the summit together .


The top is completely covered by snow, and after some time off, we began the descent or
passing as close as possible to the area that overlooks the peaks of the Galayos .


The search for a place to eat dry and not covered by snow, it is almost impossible, so try to take some foot.


not go down the same site of the climb, but we will go on the opposite side, try to find another edge on the opposite side of the Charco del Cura area ,


found a gap between stone area and this seemed to start well down .


Pisapraos girls at the top of the ridge and behind them the area that previously had crested .


The lively group discussion, comfortably down the slope.
snow this afternoon was in far worse conditions and. .


tuck it made any legs to the knees, thus messing the other .


're getting to the area without snow, we took off our crampons and tried to overcome, without falling, down throats with plenty of water.


We are close to the cars and we leave behind the snowy edges that previously we had to overcome .


has been a long march and we eager to take off our boots, change and go's have some good pitchers of beer.

SEE YOU IN THE NEXT.
