Like every summer, the "Gasolina" try to match a few days to enjoy the swimming pool of the urbanization of Jaca after a good outing. Normally, as we are in the Pyrenees and is trying to spend summer 2000 meters and do some alpine excursion. This year, we could only get a couple of days and make a trip, did not want to go from 2500 meters and there was more snow than other years (and frankly, I could not have because I am in bad shape). Decided to make a circular tour departing from Canfranc Station.
The idea was to reach the hill of the knob on the iSeries Ibón from the Valley has Canfranc Izas and down season for the trail that passes through the stand of the Basque.
Canfranc To reach station will come out
emos from Jaca towards France by the Somport and about 21 km we reach the station where you park your car Canfranc.
We went walking at about 6:10 am, have not looked. We take the N330 road until the first bridge that gets to the right and which side a track that lets you leave the car at almost the Col strong thieves. As we walked we went up the path that goes to North and matches it with one of the paths of the Camino de Santiago. Was gradually dawning and the thieves get to Cole (30 '), we had enough light to avoid tripping. There you take the path that gradually introduces us to the Valley IZAS. Jose Carlos and I remembered a path a little more plain what we were doing and a panoramic valley
a little wider towards the horizon, we find our memory a little later, after having already climbed a few meters, the Formigal ski lifts were visualized in the final hill of the valley and the waterfall of "Las Negras" waiting outside the shelter of pastors that we are in the middle of the valley. Accompanied and distracted by a lone cow that gave us good morning as bellow, we reached the shelter before and check said we should have taken a zigzag way up to our right, a path that goes to from a rock curiously cubic just a few hundred meters back. The mistake does not cost us more than 30 'minutes and go back to take the right path.
At this point begins the pechugazo good. We take every one our pace, and Jose Carlos Lapi pace "pre-Calcena" and I beat my fireproof "diesel" slow but steady. On the way up I are taking between 10 and 15 minutes less than I expected (if not deceive me to give encouragement to my ego and cheer me up). The truth is that after spending another shelter and finish a rise of one 45 'with the sun heating the Seseras cross a French gentleman colored underwear with a stick of wood higher than a backpack and Altus of the 70 with metal fasteners corroded by time. I think it's a hallucination fruit of my sobrealiento like to see "Tarzan" going up, but Jose Carlos and Lapi when we're in the iSeries Ibón I confirm it was real, in fact we are ahead of the three to a frenetic pace unattainable any human being and even deity and spotted by the ridge that runs from "The Muller" and goes to Ibón Ip later. Tarzan Menudo!.
Ibó From iSeries, we have the last pechugazo's ascension to the hill of "Muller." After those 50 or 60 'minutes came to the hill climb. Jose Carlos and lpi Dode and have been sheltered for lunch. Is 11:00 and we have the descent.
seems we have all earned but not deceived, are 9 miles of winding descent that begins without a clear signal of the path. We descended several feet across country virtually itos stone following the other climbers have left while my knees started playing and my weight began to take its toll. We reached the promised path and begins the descent into rhythm. I can not keep pace
Jose Carlos and Lapi who had arrived an hour earlier or not for my ailing knee pace. They are good companions and I hope from time to time. Upon reaching the booth Basque and see what still remained to us, is when I passed the state of suffering abuse Sadomasochistic the body without any joy with the consequent change of attitude and loss of reason. (That is, every time I wanted to express something always began with a "Cagoendioslaputabajada ...") which is also known as "syndrome in the Fragilito Felix."
Jose Carlos and Lapi, strong, at your pace no problem in completing the trip but agree with me that the descent is scrotumtightening, upload have to be scary (even for less experienced loose knees).
Anyway, I met with about 21 miles in our legs and a drop of almost 1,400 m, we reached our goal: "The pool of the urbanization of Jaca and carrying Russian salad in the refrigerator the night before"
