Day 2: Picos de Europa – A motley crew

Pictured below: Our guides (Mario & Jorge), Grandpa & Tom. This was taken after the hike. Grandpa proved that slow and steady wins the race! This was a moderately strenuous hike with a 300m ascent in about 2km to get to the first summit. Grandpa made it there – over uneven trails with slippery rock and gravel. Not bad for an 85-year-old who was last seen doing oruco shots the night before.
