So 9/11 and 14 years on I can still remember exactly where I was when I heard of the of the unfolding tragedy, as I'm sure you can too.
Just four of us head out for a walk today, the moderate / hard option, Jayne, Andrew and 'guide', Claire. We drive up to Formigal, a modern ski resort, and walk steadily uphill from there. The sun is beating down and after a climb to the col, we skirt round the back of Pena Foratata onto more exposed and rough terrain.
To a col between the twin summits and we scramble right to the lower summit, exposed and a little technical in places, the view from the summit is stunning. We have much here and watch the vultures circle effortless above us.
It's then a down-climb / scramble back the way we came and a steady walk back to Formigal.
A grand day out with good company and stunning weather.
