Spain, Spain and more Spain.

Me, relaxing (knackered) at the top of the mountain after climbing around the top of it. The valley below us is the Ordesa Valley, which was brilliant, very deep but brilliant to be at the top of it. We were climbing around a shale mountain side. Looking down down down into the Ordesa Valley....
And down further into the valley.....

We invade Spain, slipping in undetected across the border...

Taking a break before beginning another mountain assault. To the left of this, over that ridge was the second shelter, but we took the more scenic route and climbed around another mountain. I was a little over the crampons at this stage.The valleys just dropped away, and dropped down deep.

Walking down from the Breche and into Spain we walked passed this cave, full of bats and Julian. I'm striking a pose pointing towards France
The view across the Spanish side.

And now into Spain, and more snow and mountains.

So we made it up and over the Breche. Here's how we had to get down from there, ker-ching!! You can see the path we had to follow, right along the top of the snow against the mountain side. A fine balancing act.

And again, looking back at the Breche. It was pretty different on the Spanish side than the French side.

Julian, power walking ahead of me again.

I think I'm chewing on some nuts here, and just taking in the view.
