Dusting of snow south of Burgos

Time of past OR future Camino
Except the Francés
Woke up in the albergue at Santo Domingo de Silos this morning to find 2-3cm of snow lying. Very pretty and nothing to worry about and it was DSC_0147.JPGmostly burnt off by a bright sun by the time I got to the highest point of the day (c1200m) on the way to lovely Covarrubias.

But some other parts of Spain have it much worse - Rosy, the hospitalera at Fasgar, has posted a picture on the Olvidado Facebook page showing snow that looks about a foot deep.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
And what a wonderful day's walk that is, even on a day without snow! Buen camino, Alan, whichever wsy you choose to go to Burgos!
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
