2 April 2018 – Tossel del Moro

A lot of new faces on todays walk
It was nice to welcome Anita back, together with her daughter Lianne
It is good to have a younger person on the walk now and again, if only to keep us on our toes.
We also welcomed Richard and Brenda on their first walk with the group

They are still working in the UK, but have recently bought a holiday home here 
And finally we welcomed Jan and Barry on their first walk with us
No rain this week, but most days have been overcast
Today was no exception, and it was also a little colder than usual
This was not a problem when we were walking, and even less when climbing
We had planned to have our picnic at the top of Tossel del Moro
However when we got there it was cloudy and a cold wind
A few hardy souls remained at the top
But most dropped down to find a windbreak
The result was a hasty lunch and a shorter than usual break

However everyone warmed up again once we resumed the walk
Despite the cloudy sky we had a very enjoyable walk
Nice to welcome new walkers to the group and pleased they fit in so well
The only serious problem was that all the bars in Gata were closed because it was Easter Monday
Walk Stats
Distance – 12 km
Time Taken – 5.15 hours
Total Ascent – 470 metres
