[QUOTE="Juspassinthru, post: 1240429, member: 72610"] [ATTACH type="full"]167279[/ATTACH]Before I fill you in on Day 3, Urdos - Candanchú, let me address some of the safety issues generally. The Chemin d’Arles is different than the Francés (point of reference only). From OSM to Somport right now, it’s very wet and slick with running streams going to a rapid river. It is demanding but not dangerous if you use reasonable precautions. With the path being out, we finished our day in Accous, as far as we could get without having to road walk, don’t do it based on what I saw. We got a ride to Etsaut where we stayed the night. We started Day 3 in Urdos which is about 15k BUT it’s a 1200m climb and as I mentioned, it is VERY wet with snow in places above 1300m. Obviously these are current conditions. It was a hard day, I’m a fairly fit 67 year old man who’s done a fair share of hiking. Today was a stunning gorgeous 8+ on my personal difficulty scale. Had it been dry, maybe a 7. No services so plan accordingly. We started at 9:30 and finished around 3:30 including the walk into Candanchú. Be realistic about your abilities and enjoy. Finally, if you want or need a place around Borce, I found a B&B in Etsaut, adjacent to Borce, La Maison d’en Bas. Paul the owner is great, speaks E, F & G. Serves a vegetarian dinner with notice. Contact at: [email]paul@etsaut.com[/email]. If vegetarian is not what you’re looking for, La Randonneur is great. So, hard, wet and wonderful day. [/QUOTE]
