Buying coke online in Candanchu

A little bit more crowed than I hoped but what an amazing hike. Not too heavy, nicely exposed in some stretches but great to walk. On the way down via the Austrian side to the famous Eibsee for a little dip. Perfect day! We went before the season in the first week of June and ended up in waist deep snow from 2. But therefore we had the entire trail to ourselves and camped on the most epic spots totally alone. It's a beautiful km hike over some spectacular passes of the Swiss Alps. I again decided to hike with my tent and spend the nights outdoors. The right decision even though it was pretty cold for this time of the year - I realised when I woke up to a frozen sleeping bag. So I had accumulated a lot of hiking and long distance experience. On these two long distance trails I tried out a lot of different gear and also learned a lot. When I started in New Zealand I was completely over-packed! I had a 75l backpack and carried about 16kg of base weight! Only after three weeks I had the first big 'roll-over' where I changed my tent, shoes, backpack and also ditched a lot of stuff. Changing and reducing gear has almost been a sport since then. I also would have felt uncomfortable with some of the stuff I am doing now not taking without the first hand experience. Based on the knowledge I have now and also the confidence in my own capabilities eg. I wanted to go as light as possible again on the HRP and also wild-camped every night. I expected temperatures at around 5C and a few days below freezing. Pointing it out again - everybody has a different comfort zone! So there is no right or wrong. You should never risk your health or even life by under packing and not being prepared! If you don't feel comfortable take whatever makes you comfortable! You can still throw stuff out on the next re-supply stop but you can't 'get it' in the middle of nowhere if you need and don't have it with you. Of course it very much depends on the season you go. If you go during the high summer it is less likely to get really cold temperatures. Nevertheless you are in the Alps. Depending on your altitude and the weather system you can get temperatures below freezing, thunderstorms and any hazardous conditions you can encounter in the mountains. At the end you are in a high altitude mountain area. Email Address. Sign Me Up! Most important with a backpack is that it fits your back. They all have different harnesses and fit different backs. So make sure to try many. The other features are less important. My backpack of choice is now the Hyperlite Mountain Gear Southwest. It's specially designed for ultra-light hikers with a 40l volume and only weighs g in comparison my Osprey 50l bag weighs about 1,8kg! As a reference my bag is maybe half full with all my gear. The rest is 'reserved' for food and I usually fit 5 days in it easily. I would not recommend it with a permanent weight over 15kg, but if you exceed it in the first days of a long hike because of food it should be ok since you will get lighter every day. Since I was by myself I used my solo-tent Zpacks Solplex. It is made out of Dyneema Composite Fabric also known as Cuban Fibre which is highly durable and super lightweight with g only! Including 8 stakes with 60g the total weight of the tent comes down to g. Comfort, space and durability are amazing. Keep your vestibules open for ventilation since in a single wall tent you do get condensation very quickly. The lightest and smallest version is always down. The higher the number of the filling e. I used the sleeping bag mainly as blanket on this trip. I only zipped it up in a few nights. And I always was more than warm. I am sue I would have been fine in colder nights as well so I would take it again. Due to packing size I opted for an inflatable sleeping mattress. I am not a fan of the bulky foam pads which you always have to attach to the outside dangling around. I used to have a large one but now I go with the extra small one cm since I put my legs on my backpack and other things. Some people go without a stove and only eat cold or dry stuff. Apparently it works but I wouldn't want to go without one proper meal per day. For this trip I switched from a normal light weight stove and pot to the Jetboil Zip. It is a bit heavier than my old setup but it makes cooking so much easier. In max. Can you believe this? My Sea to Summit plastic spoon was on the tour again. My main water container is a cheap 1l Powerade plastic bottle - it does the job perfectly, is way lighter than the 'proper' ones, the outflow of the. Powerade bottle has the perfect size so that you can drink while walking better than the Powerade one , you can replace it once in a while if it gets to nasty and it costs almost nothing! As a water filtration system I switched to a new system thanks to a tip from my friend Maria. I used to work with the Sawyers but this new tool changed my life. The sawyer was work and I always debated of filtering or not. The new Katadyn BeeFree water filter is amazing. It is almost like not filtering. The water flow is so fast that you can't drink in the speed the filter does its job. Incredible and one of my favourite new toys. I would definitely recommend to filter the water in the Pyrenees. Even in times when I thought it was impossible to encounter horses or cows I spotted them way above me. I also have two stuff sacks 10l and 15l for my food. I try to carry as little as I can. Therefore I don't take anything which can't be used on top of each other for the worst case scenario. Don't over pack - yes, you will be smelly and a bit sticky. But everybody is out there. You'll get used to it. Not showering for ten days sounds really bad at the beginning but it's actually not. I have to say they are better than the 4. They somehow managed to get rid of the weak-point on the front part. This is were the old ones all used to rip after km. This pair still looks like new after km and no signs of ripping. Really great! To protect my socks and shoes from the insight I use very small Outdoor Research Sparkplug gaiters. And the above mentioned rain skirt Zpacks Rain Kilt. I would personally make it shorter and keep it over your knees for better movability. For the really cold days I carry a thin Icebreaker merino beanie and a pair of Icebreaker Sierra gloves. Not used a single time. But I would take it again - you never know. One Icebreaker Descender Long Sleeve merino wool jumper - early in the morning or later in the day on cold and windy days I like to wear this one. Down is to warm to walk in but to save weight I would maybe consider leaving it behind next time. Let's see. Since my swim shorts have a mesh inside I don't wear underwear. It also helps for better ventilation, less sweating and rubbing. So I only carry one pair of merino underwear to sleep in. The only extras I carried were one Icebreaker merino t-shirt which is not really necessary - but it is nice sometimes if you are soaked after a day and you want to sleep in a dry shirt. But you don't need it. If its wet I either try to keep in on and dry it with body heat or I take it off and wear my jumper. It sucks in the morning to put it on again but after 20 minutes of exercising it's usually dry. I also have one pair of extra socks in case a sock breaks down. This usually happens quickly. I went through a pair in weeks. Other than that you only need one pair. How many can you wear? If they smell you wash them in a break. If they are wet? Then you walk in wet socks. If it rains on consecutive days even dry socks are wet after 20 minutes so there is no sense in putting dry ones on to into your wet shoes How to go light: Try to buy the smaller sizes. No need to carry ml of something that will last for 2 month. Resupply more often. In case shit happens. How much can you do in the wilderness? If it's a minor thing you usually don't really have to do anything and if it's a big thing broken bones, etc. So the only thing you have to do is get out and get help. So I am not a big fan of carrying a lot of stuff. For the heavy stuff I rely on painkillers Ibuprofen , the cable ties and ductape. I also carry Imodium for dhiaria how many do you need? And a few Antihistamine pills after my shocking 25 sting-wasp-experience. For the smaller issues and especially my feet I have a small roll of plaster tape Mefix which is a sticky plaster to seal open wounds and a 2m strip of Leuko Surgical Tape wrapped around a solid plastic tube: it's the only tape which really works. The adhesive is incredible and even stays on feet for days when they get wet. Don't try anything else! What I don't carry anymore different to before the trail and on the picture: Voltaren, Aspirin, hand sanitiser, bio degradable washing lotion, ear plugs. Minimal as well. Tape and cable ties will fix most problems temporarily or even long term. For the electronics I only carry my iPhone for backup navigation bad weather, emergency situations and to write the blog. Sufficient amount of ductape wrapped around my trekking poles so I don't have to carry it in the backpack fixes everything: equipment and also small injuries. An Opinel Knife No. On top I carried 4 one gallon Ziploc bags as emergency and rain gloves and socks and a small stuff sack to store everything. USB charger with double port, my iPhone in a waterproof Catalyst iPhone case - also my fall back navigation and emergency if I have reception device, a Goal Zero Flip 20 Powerbank for two charges. A Black Diamond Ion headlamp for hikes during night time and everything else when it's dark. Photography is one of my passions. So I can't go without a proper camera. I tried to find a compromise between a full DSLR camera which is to bulky and heavy and a smaller one which will still give me a very high quality. Zuiko Digital ED 25mm It almost weighs 1. It is pretty heavy but as I said - my only luxury piece of equipment. On top I have 2 spare battery, 2 SD memory cards, cleaning wipes, a grey filter and the camera battery charger. And I also finally found a way to attach my camera to my backpack so that I can always use it without taking my backpack off or it dangling around and being annoying. The Peak Design clip straps the camera to your shoulder belt. It's fixed, secured and you still have easy access to it. And after two years of heavy usage I can only highly recommend this thing including the shell to protect your camera from dust and rain. If you take the extra weight of a good camera with you this clip is a must item - if you have your camera in your pack you'll never use it and just carry dead weight around! Leki Khumbu Lite hiking poles which I always use. Suunto Core Watch. Simple watch, altimeter and compass. I am not a fan of GPS watches since they use a lot of battery which you don't have out there. Additional 32oz Gatorade big opening pee-bottle for the night. I hate getting out of the tent at night. July and August I did about km in distance and roughly Since I only had limited time I hiked between 12 and 14 hours every day and with being a rather fast hiker I made it to Banyuls in 23 days and 3 hours. So much to the hard facts. The HRP has been an amazing hike! For me it was the first time in the Pyrenees. And what can I say. I had no clue how beautiful they are! I was really surprised by the amazing mountain landscape. I really loved the rough alpine terrain above the tree line. I have to admit that I am a big fan of the higher and rougher alpine areas and I do love long and steep uphill climbs. So the Pyrenees with mostly very grey and bright granite combined with the sparse vegetation were amazing in that sense already. But especially the very steep and long ascents made me very happy. Very often you just get 1. Exactly my cup of tea. So I do have seen quite a few mountain areas already but the Pyrenees made it to the very top of the list. I will definitely come back to do more hikes here. I hiked between August and I guess it has been another very hot summer. I started in a heat wave with over 40C on sea level. I woke up at 6 o'clock at Source de Marmitou with still 23C. So it's probably hopefully not a representative year. I had really hot days with mid 30s in the valley along the way. I had two days of rain between Gavarnie and Parzan. But besides this I had quite a few days in the clouds with a few showers in between but mainly hot and sunny days. I was hit by four small thunderstorm or rather cells but they all hit me during the night which was not a problem. I think the coldest night I had was at Lac de Caillauas 2. Because of the warm weather I never really hat the need for warm clothes. I always walked in my Speedo swim-shorts and a t-shirt. I did put my merino-wool sweater on once in a while early in the morning or when I was in the clouds. The other nights I only used it as a blanket. I started out from Hendaye with way too much food - probably for almost 5 days. But I wanted to see what 'limited resupply' actually meant. Looking back I can only say that when 'limited resupply possibility' was quoted I found more than enough to find enough for the next stretch. Maybe you don't find your favourite brand or flavour and sometimes you might have to get creative but you won't starve and will be fine. I also used may resupply points to just get extra meals and calorie boosters. I knew that I would never be able to keep a balance with my calories. So if there was a shop on the way I made sure to get two cans of coke, fruits, bread, olives, coffee, chips, yogurt and whatever I could get and I was too lazy to carry as a snack. Day 2. Resupply: Les Aldudes great shop : just a few things to stock up. Day 4. Calorie booster: Col Bagargui - had yogurt, milk, fresh fruit and they even had dehydrated meals. Day Here you will find my complete equipment list of the trip: HRP gear list. In the mean-time you can just check out the gear page. But the update will come soon. Even though it was a very hot summer I would be totally fine to take the same equipment with much colder weather. Great and short notes for the hike, good description of alternates and GPS files. Really helpful once you get into the real preparation phase of the tour: Whiteburn's Wanderings. I also used Chris' blog as point of reference for my stages. He pretty much hiked the same speed and distance. So it was very helpful to have his stages to see where I would end up at the end of the day or what was possible. Besides this I only used the iOS App maps. Sometimes I used the mountain weather forecast when I needed updates for the peaks. I also carried paper maps just the pieces I needed and the short notes from Whiteburn. I do like the paper maps when I am alone. I had a situation already where my phone died on me in a river and I was glad I had maps to get out. But to have an overview and to plan the next day it was always helpful and saved a lot of battery power. I really liked the entire section between Lescun and Canigou. Of course there were a few more and less stunnig sections but overall it was amazing all the way. From Lescun the really high mountains were building up, then you were in the really high section for a long time but also coming out again at then end looking at the high stuff behind and the rolling hills again was great. Pic Carlit and the ridgewalk afterwards were surprising highlights of the trip! The valley after Refugio de Certascan - it was dangerous and completely unnecessary since there is also a good trail in the neighbour-valley. See the detailed post from Day Thanks Paul for the hint. Here is a screen shot of the map and the alternate after Refugio de Certascan to avoid the horrible descent:. Also the entire section around Airoto and down to Alos d'Isil was just horrible. No trails, very tyring overgrown boulder fields and steep bushwacking down to Alos d'Isil. I would try to find a work-around next time. See Day I did not sleep in a refugio a single night but always in my tent. I camped on an official campsite in Gavarnie because of the expected thunderstorm and next to the Refugio in Heas, Wallon and Sorteny for various reasons. I cooked every night with my Jetboil stove besides 4 nights were I got food in town, a refugio or carried prepared food out on the first day. Unfortunately I did not find the small gr version in Hendaye. I would have preferred to buy a new one half way. I managed to not take a single shower on the trip. I dipped into rivers and lakes though but of course always without using soap out there. Here you can find the detailed day by day HRP articles. I tried to put points of reference, refugios or stages from the Cicerone guide into the start and end of a day so it is easier to find them on the map. The exact start and end point of the day can be found in the article. Hope this makes it easier finding the spots. Day 1: Hendaye to Col-d'Inzola. Day 2: Col d'Inzola to Les Aldudes. Day 5: Pic d'Ory to Source de Marmitou. Day 6: Source de Marmitou to Pla d'Espelunguere. Day 7: Pla d'Espelunguere to Valle Darrious. Day 8: Valle Darrious to Refuge Wallon.

From the Atlantic Ocean over the highest passes and peaks of the Pyrenees to the Mediterranean Sea - km and Took me 23 days to hike from Hendaye to Banyuls-sur-Mer. No rest day, h of hiking every day and short nights in my tent. Tour de Mont Blanc - 4 days and camping. Since we only had four days in total we had to go very light and we also wild-camped every night. We also carried all food for the first two days until we were surely able to resupply in Courmayeur. We wanted to be independent from huts and daily limits with our hikes. It paid off well. We did the entire circuit in 4 days and 3 hours. It meant a daily average of hours of hiking but it was doable. When I tried to plan the route, trip and especially the days needed in advance I did not find any sufficient information about people doing it on their own in a relatively short amount of time. Most people take days. Because of this I also didn't find any appropriate information about the gear to take and also the recommended daily sections. Here you go. Since we hiked together of course we were able to share a few pieces of equipment like the tent and the stove. But to make it easier to follow I will post the full gear list for a solo hike.

HRP - Pyreneen Haute Route Tour Summary

Buying coke online in Candanchu

The GR11 is the star of all the trails in the southern Pyrenees. GR stands for Gran Recorrido long path, in English. The GR11 was finished in and is km. We have divided the trek into 35 legs:. However, it is up to you to decide how many days you will spend. It depends on your fitness level and on the season. The GR11 has a lot of variants we will not describe in this article. Some of them are mentioned in the article. To find out more, take a look at some of the books in the Books section. Variants were created to allow walkers to benefit from the most interesting areas which the GR11 crosses, or to get closer to some peaks. I will tell you about the attainable peaks in the description of every walk. We have divided the GR11 into 35 sections legs , but it can be walked in legs, or even more. It depends on your fitness level, the kind of accommodation you feel comfortable in some people prefer not to stay at unstaffed huts and the duration of your holidays. You might like to climb some peaks that are near the trail. If so, you need to make that leg shorter to accommodate the ascent. As stated above, the GR11 passes through a great variety of landscapes, from high and steep mountains in Catalonia and Aragon, to gentler mountains in Navarra, Basque Country and East Catalonia next to the Mediterranean sea. The highest points on the trail attain m. Every leg informs you about the highest point when this is an important issue to be considered. Regarding the elevation gain, some legs have more than m height difference. Regarding signs on the trail, the GR11 is not always well signposted. That means that you should bring the necessary maps to cover all the legs you want to walk. Also, you need navigation skills, a compass and an altimeter. Otherwise, hire a mountain guide who knows the trail well. Finally, the terrain has large variations depending on the area you are walking in. It can vary from gentle flat tracks to very steep slopes or screes, or exposed paths. If you have high-mountain equipment and alpine experience you can walk these legs throughout the year. Nevertheless, you may find some snow patches in July, in the highest parts of the trail. If that is the case, a pair of crampons and an ice axe will help if you have to cross a snow covered steep slope, so long as you know how to use them. For instance, the slopes below the Portella de Baiau pass can be snow covered until late July. Servei de Meteorologia for the Pyrenees in Andorra. Unfortunately, none of the above-metioned web sites are in English. If you have any questions about the weather forecast, please do not hesitate to contact me by filling in the form on this post. When the GR11 passes by a village or town you can stay overnight at a hotel or hostel. However, many legs of the GR11 are in the wilderness so there is no possibility to stay in hotels, rural houses or hostels. These can be:. Staffed huts and hotels should be booked in advance. Every staffed hut is managed by a warden who cooks and takes care of everything. The prices do vary from hut to hut, but on average these are the prices per day per person :. Hot water sometimes runs out after many people have taken a shower. You have to leave them in a small room between the first and the second entrance. The hut provides you with sandals to use while you are inside, or you can bring your own indoor shoes or slippers if you want. You should take only what you need for the night to the dormitory. Let the warden know what time you expect to get up in the morning. Use a sleeping-bag shaped sheet instead. I may use the underwear for the following day. Try to carry as few things as possible, and as light as possible. As I said before, you do not need to carry a tent, sleeping bag, cook, food. Regarding clothes, bring only one underwear spare. The stiffer the better if you plan on using crampons. Just for rain and wind. Consider the items that I mentioned in What should I carry when I stay overnight in a hut. Difficult to use! You get useful information about huts in Catalonia but you cannot book online. Best maps are those with a scale. I do not recommend lower scales such as or Three publishing houses edit maps on the Spanish Pyrenees. Depending on the section of the GR11 you want to walk, you are obliged to choose one of them. Information in English. Unfortunately, the website is not in English. Maps included. A beautiful and varied landscape. You start and finish near the Mediterranean sea. Comments: Long leg. I advise starting early in the morning. The path undulates up and down. I recommend starting below the plaque which marks the starting point of the GR Because you can touch the water of the Mediterrean sea before starting your trek. This is symbolic, and you will do the same when you reach the Cantabrian sea. Then you arrive at Cala Tabellera , a charming small beach with a fresh water well. Eventually you arrive at Port de la Selva village. Afterwards you ascend for a long time, passing stone walls which used to mark vineyards. At the the top of a crag there is the Sant Pere de Rodes monastery. There is a spring next to a big tree. The views over the coastline are fantastic, and the best are from the viewpoint next to Santa Elena church. To learn more about this area click here information only in Catalan and Spanish. Cumulative ascent: m Cumulative descent: m Duration: 5h Highlights: The number of cork oaks. Comments: Easy leg along the base of the Albera mountain range , part of the Albera protected nature reserve. Most of the trail is broad forest tracks and paved paths, so this part is not very exciting. On your way we find the Sant Silvestre Romanesque church and the small village of Vilamaniscle. We are now into the Albera protected reserve , well known because of its megalithic tombs and monuments, and because it is the habitat of the Hermann turtle. We then get to the Mas Noguer menhir , and later on to the Sant Quirc de Colera monumental site, a 10 th Century Benedictine monastery. From now on the landscape is full of prickly shrubs. We also find many tufts of spartium junceum, the most common shrub in the region. At the end of the leg, we recommend leaving the GR11 via a track to Espolla , a village where we can find accommodation. Requesens castle worth a visit. Comments: Easy leg. Again, too many boring broad forest tracks along the way. Be careful on windy days. You start walking at Els Vilars farm. The path crosses fantastic cork oak woods which show you that cork manufacturing took place here many centuries ago. One goal of this leg is to get the La Llosarda pass , because you have awesome views of the Canigou peak and the bay of Rosas. Later on, it is worth leaving the track near Mirapols house in order to visit the 11 th Century Recasens castle , which perhaps unfortunately was restored under the influence of Romanticism. From there, you can see a curious granitic geological landscape near La Jonquera. You see huge cork oaks in woods crossed by broad forest tracks. Comments: Easy leg with a lot of springs. The tracks you find after leaving La Jonquera are not well signposted. During the Spanish Civil War many works from the Prado museum in Madrid were hidden near here in a disused mine. He was a hero of the Carolingian dynasty, which had as its most famous king Charlemagne. Alta Garrotxa: Legs 5 and 6 of he GR11 cross this protected reserve. You can read more about La Garrotxa here. Comments: You still follow broad forest tracks, but the woods are more and more dense. A lot of springs and streams. Accommodation in the Galan mountain hut. You have to deal with two steep ascents. Very hot in summer outside the woods. Climbing Puig de Bassegoda is a thrilling adventure: you have to leave the GR11 for a couple of hours and scramble up towards the summit some steel wires helps you to get there. Beget, one of the most beautiful villages of the Catalan Pyrenees. To learn more about Beget click here. Comments: Quite a hard leg due to the rugged terrain of the High Garrotxa. Good spring nearby. Afterwards, you reach the Salt de la Nuvia , a narrow pass on the edge of a cliff. Excellent views of the Puig de Bassegoda peak. XII Romanesque church with its famous bell tower. Setcases: a typical Pyrenean village with many hotels for overnight stays. The landscape shows you have reached the high mountains: you achieve nearly 1,m of altitude. Lots of springs and streams. You cross oak and chestnut woods during the first part of this leg. The vegetation has changed: no more woods, only alpine meadows and infinite views. She was a maid from Mas Galceran, who wanted to show that she did not fear the ghosts that the old folks said haunted that area, so she climbed it one night. Once there, she put a stick in the ground to show how far she had gone, but it inadvertently snagged her dress. She did not see it, and when she felt trapped out of fear she had a heart attack and she died. Wild chamois. Comments: A hard and high leg. Be careful of fog and storms while on the crest line. You will pass by the Ull de Ter mountain hut, located near the sources of the Ter river. La Marrana pass is a milestone from where you will have awesome views of the Canigou peak. Later on you will pass the Tirapits shelter , small but very useful in case of thunder storm. Then you will arrive at the Nou Creus pass , where nine crosses commemorate nine mountaineers who died there because of the snow and the Torb wind. See amazing pictures climbing Puigmal here. Comments: Very hard leg. You break away from the GR11 to climb Puigmal. The ascent to Puigmal is not challenging if the weather is good. Views of La Cerdanya valley Comments: Very hard leg. Stay overnight at the Joaquim Folch i Girona unstaffed mountain hut without basic services such as meals, water, heat, etc. You can carry less weight if you book your lunch at the Malniu mountain hut. If the hut is open, the caretakers are be happy to cook for you. On the way you pass by Guils de Cerdanya , a small village where you can visit its fantastic 12 th Century Romanesque church. Later on you can fill up your water bottles in the Ase spring, m away from the trail. Pay attention! Break at the Malniu mountain hut : many facilities such as meals, bar, picnic area, spring, etc. At weekends is sometimes crowded. Andorra: l egs 11 and 12 partially run in Andorra. This is an interesting article about Andorra. A long leg which permits you enter Andorra. Many springs and streams, as well as huts which are useful shelters during storms and lightning. Your first milestones are the Portella dels Engorgs pass and the Cabana dels Esparvers shelter. Between both the GR11 is sometimes signalled with cairns. The GR You start the long descend of the Madriu valley. Cumulative ascent: 1,m Cumulative descent: m Duration: 12h Highlights: Awesome mountain lakes, peaks, crest lines, forests … you see them all. Coma Pedrosa 2, m , the highest peak in Andorra. You cross the deep and steep valleys of Andorra, achieving three high passes. You stay overnight at the Baiau unstaffed mountain hut which is basic. So you buy food in Encamp before leaving. You leave Andorra to enter Catalonia again Pallars county. You do not need to enter Ordino village. However, the trail does cross the Arinsal village. Both have plenty of hotels. Once the Negre lake has been reached, the meadows and trees have disappeared and you walk only on rocks and stones. The next milestone is the Portella de Baiau pass , on the border between Andorra and Catalonia. I advise you to climb Coma Pedrosa peak m , the highest peak in Andorra. After reaching the summit, you should come back to the Portella de Baiau. This part of the path can only walked during the summer, that is to say, from late June until late October. Otherwise, you should carry crampons, ice-axe and either snowshoes or skis, and have mountaineering experience in winter conditions. Tudela forest. Comments: Again, a very hard leg.
