In the early morning I make a solo-trip uphill. I try to find bm529-528-527 but can't find any of them, despite my pda-gps and the directions from the Procès-Verbal. This picture: from the probable spot of bm527 at the end of a rocky ridge. |
 |
Idem from the likely spot of bm528, close to a stream. |
 |
After 3 hours I'm back at the tent where Jan-Willem is waiting. I couldn't find the same trail back. We pack our tent and leave 12.30. In 4 hours we'll walk to Col des Massanes. |
 |
My arms and legs are scratced
after all that wrestling through the bush. We are on our way to Falgo Golf |
 |
via Villeroje and the road to St. Laurent. From (close to the entrance of) Golf Falgo we pick up the Tour de Vallespir-trail untill close to the Collada dels Maceners or Col de Massanes. That's where we pitch our tent. |

Through sticky bush I reach bm525 at the end of a ridge. MIOM N42 21 23.3 E2 35 17.9 |

Through even more sticky bush I find bm524 which is situated on a sort of pass. MIOM N42 21 25.6 E2 35 06.4 |

And then a bit of relaxing and writing my logbook. |
