So….. we had 1 inch of rain here at home in a 4 hour period. We found it and opportunity to test our packs/setup. We hiked 12 miles in pure downpour. We both wore shorts and no pack covers as mine is waterproof and his Osprey has a waterproof... -

natcire replied to the thread Taxi? Can they find us in the middle of nowhere?.My first Camino in 2018 was unplanned and nothing was booked.
