could say that thanks to the destiny we could make this wonderful journey from Jerez Marquesado to Trevélez, about joining the Rock of Chancla Veloz. We made contact through my cousin Antonio and because he was playing, and playing tighten the legs and sleep rough under the stars, here in Sierra Nevada. Well
herding, which is gerund and the illusion is cool. About the time we got in touch and stay to meet and discuss the itinerary. The thing was as it was and we could not refuse the invitation and open arms and promised evidence that the most gratifying thing. Overall, we joined providing for the entry to us without pensárnoslo Peña and stayed for this, his fourth voyage, and this year I played I mention below to enjoy the memory and tranquility of the steps. And until the next stay, as recorded in the minutes. Leaving
18 components, all "proper uniform" and thanks to sponsor sponsor (an ear for that Juanma and one for the guides) Saturday July 1 at 8:15 am by minibus from Granada, chartered for the occasion in Jerez direction of the Marquis, with two previous stops on the itinerary. The first and removes points Release the white hen that nearly cost him the driver because the policeman stopped us for going too slowly (if the bus could not handle the bags or with so much hope in the face). And the second to take us in that piece Diezma big breakfast. From here all the Marquis continued to Jerez and a little labia to the driver pulled the detail up until we got on track near the start of rush toward the shelter of Postero Alto and Ballesteros. After the stop
corresponding burden of backpacks on their shoulders, collecting sticks, a tightening and a loosening of straps and legs, photo de rigueur for the press and the family, since we started the march from Recreation Area to hell (to 1,465 m), and it was decided instead of going through the firewall behind us and heading towards the Lodge, a little further down the bus and leave us at this recreational area located the ravine of Alcazar, located at the confluence of the Verde River and the stream of Sabinal, with the idea, but we lost a little height, attack by the dense mass of pines, with their corresponding shadows and continue upstream (the then we would face the front) to the vicinity of the Port of Trevélez, which could leave to our left. First going through hell, of course, under this effort moves us and encourages, but as you said our wise sayings, "like non-itchy scabies" while I add ... Hang on to the path that now is all uphill!
During the ascent, which would be the highlight of the day (on a 7 ½ hours on a peak of about 3,101 m.), we leave behind our right of Porterillo Refuge, the ruins of the Red Box , the Stone of Thieves and Brook ravine Alhorí and the Marquis Jerez always behind us
When you reach a plateau, and surpassed in just the Port of Trevélez we left on our left, the eye candy that nature offers us, from this height of three thousand, is impressive. To our left is the Cerro Pelado Horcajo- with 3,182 m., on our right and bottom, as close as huge as the cornerstone of Vacares, The Citadel, The Mulhacén, and Veleta. And with that last breath and what you get behind the effort we put on what we like, from here, in sharp drop between slabs and a desire to arrival to Juntilla Lagoon (2931 m.) where we would spend night. Night certainly did not hit your eye or stones, and a wind that is why you do not hold twist. This gap, as most of the Sierra Nevada, is of glacial origin and is in the beginning of the river of the same name later joins the ass of the Dog River to form the river Trevélez.
The next day we broke camp. After counting: two stores badly wounded, some had to be volatilized Esterillos pick them a mile away at least and some outerwear and other debris that could have been left to join the "bio" Juntilla river if we had not gone to his fishing. But are good things in nature that after one remembers and recalls so pleasantly as they pass. And as the theme, go to the tractor T-shirts yellow and sponsored us Juanma home: "With what he would be comfortable on the couch." But nothing to walk that is healthier and there are no remote. We started the morning walk
of July 2 downhill and as a gift and how nice reward for the left bank of the river face value and as the law of gravity rules. Of course, some touched the ground by the strong prevailing wind (still running those hurricanes).
Soon, the height of the strut Vacares, take the canal of the same name and continuing we to Cortijo de las Jesusa (Cortijo of Mimbres for the locals because it is surrounded by four large wicker) and where we see a nice view of the Alcazaba. Here we had planned to camp, have lunch and spend the night, but the grass Subway (groomed and pointing at his face), water coming down everywhere, it advised against immediately. So for these cases took hold once more to chance, opting to continue ravine down to the confluence of the River Juntilla Port (known as the Horcajo ) and where we find the remains of ancient farms with was appropriate to continue after the river downstream of Trévelez (called as well, from the union of the two) and find a good area for lunch and free water. But how much water ... How much water, since it is in the Alpujarra area!
After lunch and a siesta we continue the march. The first site free of moisture was ours for camping and we spend the night there, sleeping like God intended. Total already near Trevélez (about two hours) and the right bank of the river, we decided to set camp for the evening was over.
the night, for the better, for everyone. Wind and ran no longer jokes, tea Martini flavored, soup "instant" and some other developed and invented fell like flies home to meet us. Backpacks first, had to leave empty and out. The weight is still measured in kilograms and had to lighten the load.
The next day, July 3, and my forty-all on your back, after the singing of happy birthday, I was thrilled that one never knows until you get that song, because they broke camp and all with the mind set on Trevélez. Well rather in these beers from a pitcher and we knew as a shipwrecked raft. People is achieved, but not before savoring the sight, hearing and smell and through a beautiful path that runs between rich and lush vegetation, flowing into the area known as Mill Altero. Hence a red track of land in ten minutes we left in midtown, right on the Plaza de la Iglesia de Trevélez. I have finally
highlight the most characteristic flora and we find us on this journey: the Estrella de las Nieves (Plantago nivalis) , the carnivorous Tiraña (Pinguicula nevadensis), the Evergreen (Sempervivum minutum) to the verge of burst into flower, violet (Viola crassiuscula) and the area of \u200b\u200bSierra Nevada, wild orchids (Dactylorhiza elata), thyme in flower with the pink foxglove, were our companions for the whole course. The fauna, as some beautiful specimens of the Sierra Nevada Apollo (Parnassius apollo nevadensis) by hands, other mountain goat sighting at dawn providing water in the Lagoon of face value, a huge boar ravine below the saddle, as cows everywhere Peter for his house and a flock of sheep at home.
And I said, that thank you very much everyone: Pepe, Emily, Julio, Jose, Fernando, Juan Fran, Puri, Clara, Juanma, Juli, Rafa, Manolo, Maria Angeles and Montserrat, for those hours, those two nights and three days full of joy and laughter. On behalf of my cousin Antonio and Maria Angeles, my wife and me ("the four agregaos the gazpacho"), until next we meet. And call me or any other thing you can think of. Or if you want to do the fifty lakes of Sierra Nevada in an hour and a day that we signed up for the shower. Everything is to get those quick flip flops again and again to tell.
As always leave some photos to remember and recount that were there and we had to fear. Whenever it halfway to come.
