National Gaurd Backpack

LA PORTA DEL CEL 2010

Last weekend we had an objective, La Porta Del Cel in 36 hours. We
my brother Angel, David and me. David made the outpost on Friday night to pick up the shirt and pass the card to seal at different points along the way, was left to sleep in the camp of Graus. My brother and I went on Saturday at dawn, at 2:00 pm to Graus. We arrived at six o'clock, we prepared and Starting Out our adventure. The route is beautiful
show her the pictures below and the 175 I have not posted for not saturate the photo blog.
We walk all the way but the last 13km run to get within 36 hours. Graus
started in the peak direction Certascan, hard, with air rising on the ridge. Drop small appetisers of 10 min. Return to walk till Certascan Refuge. There ate the sandwich prepared at home. Our next break was the Refugio del Pinet, France, and there was where we would spend the night. Along the way we missed a couple of times, the marks were rare and hunters had erased many of them. Gps luck. The road was very technical, at least for us, not to mention the time we stopped having the guy who did 11 hours for the whole tour, a machine.
found no difficulty in the snow the first day. We arrived at the Refuge
Pinet, dined and slept a lot, too much forced us to run the second day.
The second day we woke up at 5:30 and 6 are already in direction to La Pica D'Estats, the highest point of travel, I and my brother was the first time I went up. Before reaching the summit we stopped to take shelter, it was very cold and lots of air, increasing the sensation of cold. Sumino as quickly as possible, seal and photos and down it was cold.
of smooth snow fall are just two steps, we went on with great care.
De La Pica we had to go to Refuge Vallferrera. and down, beating a hill and look sorpredimos us down the amount of people coming up on Sunday for Pica, looked like a pilgrimage, one after another as children excursion. People looked at us and stared at their feet, we were going to run and they sneakers boots and crampons for snow, I saw one with an ice ax. We wondered if we had done so Pica, with sneakers, which respodiamos always the same: "If there are only two steps of snow complicated ....."
In Vallferrera we ordered two sandwiches, one we ate there and the other a backpack. It was here when we look at the path that was missing, the time that we had and when we had left Graus and decided it was not running or were not within 36 hours. As Running wing (trot). We
to Tavasquan absence of 40 min for 36 hours, were 4 km and we had it, but when we rise a little complicated thing, especially the last 1.5 km which became eternal. At the end of 35 hours
X min. within time. Reward
Vallferrera sandwich we had thought Mitar eat the way and we were not able to run. The
