Scooter Metal Core Wheels For 20 Dollars



the Ridge Winter Peak to Peak Agulleta Forqueta. A nice route introduction to winter mountain.

The abundant snow in late November in the Pyrenees. When the two chained 11/23/2010 via ferrata most interesting of Aragon, the Tosal of Foradada Miravet and the Tosca, the amount of snow accumulated in the Russell and Cotiella, evident that it was time to start the winter season. In Tosal Miravet (Huesca), the Catalan School and Mountain Climbing Pont de Suert (Lleida) has a good Via Ferrata equipped with a first vertical part and many staples, and then with steps climbing and staples. From the summit, including Pico Russell well loaded with snow, normal to be climbing at -3 °. Link to the Ferrata Foradada Tosca, is passed under the beautiful Peak Turbón which has little snow. The Way of Foradada is elegant, vertical and slightly overhanging as Ferrata Regina, but shorter.

PR HU-182, to the Puerto Viejo de Bielsa.
Until the snow settles, it's just to warm up with simple routes. Posts to "warm up" we went to the mouth south of Tunnel de Bielsa (Huesca) 1666m. We were -9 °, despite which the ice falls were still not well-formed (10/11/1927). A trace of skis provided us over, but before arriving at a cabin (Cota 2100, the snow prevented the door) and we had to put on the snowshoes.

Snow is not seated and difficult to advance (and more to me that was so sleepy that I had lying in the snow despite being at -3 °, certainly was not much help to open trace). The aim of the day were the Picos de Barrosa 2772m and 2742m from the Old Port, but the slow progress we advise to change by the End of the Forqueta (or Marioules) 2563m and 2524m Agulleta.
Picos de Barrosa and Puerto Viejo.

Past the junction with the trail that goes to Puerto de la Forqueta, we began to climb the southern slopes. Truly, this output will serve as physical training.

Marioules Peak (O Forqueta as some maps) we leave for another day, rising to 2534m Forqueta Peak, passing through the altitude 2526m and end at the peak Agulleta (Aguillete) 2524m. It is a good climbing shoe boards cruise, and the summit ridge is traversed without difficulty from one peak to another.

If during the ascent the temperature was -3 °, the wind in the tops and -6 º invited to recreate the wonderful little landscape. The penalty is not seen either the ridge east of Troumouse, we would have liked to see as it gets in winter. The cumulative altitude of around 1000m, the low difficulty (Pending 25-35 º), the time depending on snow conditions. Recommended for novice either tables or snowshoes always accompanied by an expert, the forest is very skiable.
