Safe at Pitres

There is too much to say for my clumsy fingers, although I have just rememered the pen that comes with the phone and am using it. 5 layers including buff and gloves at the start of the day.. Yes Andrew I needed both my fleeces!! Now in shorts and a T shirt at Pitres.
It was 4.5 hours of descent. I met more walkers near the refugio, intent on conquering Mulhacen. It was 5 degrees at the refugio and the wind chill was horrific. My contact lenses nearly froze onto my eyes. Anyway I want to enjoy my cerbeza now. I have certainly deserved it. But I wouldchave cried if I'd had to go up any more big hills today. Now lets see if the promsed wifi signal works.

It works. And thanks for the dawn photo. And the others of course. Epic. Is it sometimes just warm, or always freezing or roasting? Can we have a photograph with all the kit on: you look very sprightly i was expecting you to look more like a pack animal. Keep blogging: it's a tiny bit like being there. Xx
