| On Judith's birthday we hiked from Superbagnères to Pic de Céciré and beyond to Hourquette de Hounts-Secs. Returned the same way. Three days later we climbed from the Granges d'Astau to Col d'Espingo and beyond, also hiking towards the same saddle from the other side.However, weather quickly deteriorated after noon with stormclouds piling up. We decided that we didn't want to be caught in the storm, so returned short of our destination. The weather broke shortly after we settled down in our car. |
