I saw that some storms passed through Pamplona region last week, anyone know how the trails are? It looked like a lot of flooding and snow, but from the news source (BBC) I couldn't tell where the flooding was. Anyone out there now? Say between Roncesvalles and Puenta la Reina? I did just look at the weatherbug site that someone had posted, it just lists Pamplona as being fairly cold.

Thanks for any insight. (Winter hiking is pretty new for me, I've hiked the Camino 2x before, but they were on either side of summer.)

sil posted this blog by a cyclist who has just been passing through this area, and he has some very wintry looking photos on his blog http://camineropinoy.blogspot.com/2009/02/mio-el-camino-de-santiago-de-compostela_15.html as well as great descriptions of the conditions he is encountering.

Actually amgirl, on another thread someone just realised this blog is being posted 'after the event' and the cyclist encountered these cold conditions even later- ie just after Easter!
