It seemed that this weekend would be rain and reading through the window of the apartment in Jaca, but thanks to the provisions of "the weather to come" that nailed, we decided to plan the rest ecursión on Saturday to "get up early" (0830) on Sunday and do a walk through the snow. So the shoe premiered this winter I bought it.
The day dawned cold but clear, with a great morning sun greets us over breakfast, leads us to predict that the day will be great and it is.
To avoid the crowds overwhelm the Somport skiing tracks (where there are snowshoe tours), we decided to go directly to the Aisa Valley where at altitude, snow sure we'd meet and it was. From Jaca take the N-330 direction Candanchu. Just after Castiello de Jaca and before reaching Villanua take the detour to Borao. To Borao the road is fixed, Bora to Aisa, the road is worse, but once you arrive. When we Aisa, we follow the carrtera until Although the snow or a door to prevent entry of cattle cars. Here we leave the car and continue walking down the runway. (The same way that we do to get on the Aspe from Aisa).
About the only thing we did was walk through the valley flat. Surrounded by the vast masses who comprise it. Several hikers with big tripods and SLR cameras, some racketeers and ski touring up trying to Aspe, but apparently from 2000 m the wind was very strong. We walked quietly with our rackets and without losing the riverbank. At the time of journey, we have decided to return little by little and have lunch in the lodge is at the beginning of the valley.
The walk was soothing, tranquil and I could almost say that treatment for those who just finished exams in February and we took 2 months of confinement.
Now, to expect a little more snow, so that there is little snow does not melt too soon and finish the season with bike trips. Some are willing (which is me) and this step is not I am ...
