Orduña up to from there up to Txarlazo. At the end talk to Kepa_C \u200b\u200band Ate (Forero Mendiak.net) and drove the three to Txarlazo. That if we drove and as they stretched out to Txolope also rising, I fall to Orduña and I went back by train (I had to be to eat at home;))

At this time, that sun is still low, leaving a backlit with golden tones that I like.
I can not entertain me too, that they escape me. The trail is very depressed, and although no problem going up, down we will have to find the less tread to avoid slipping on the snow.
