Desde el Jito de Escarandi; La Pica Mancondíu en el centro, a su izq. las dos cumbres a subir hoy: el Samelar y el Canto la Concha
The view from the start point between Asturias and Cantabria for many walks into the Picos. I try to do at least one walk a year from here; today's objectives are the two mountains on the left
La Pica desde la Collada Tresmancondíu
The following photos are taken along the way up
La depresión oriental de Ándara
San Carlos, la Junciana y La Rasa
El Collado de San Carlos
A cow at 2000 metres cooling its feet in the snow
El suave ascenso al Samelar
It's a gentle incline all the way up
El Canto la Concha desde el Samelar
The view from the main summit (Samelar) down to the Canto la Concha, which I decided to go and see
el Alto Las Verdianas, que había sido mi objetivo original
This had been my original objective, but the views didn't look as if they'd be worth it
Pero debido a la nube decidí bajar al Canto la Concha - así se ve el Samelar desde ahí
So the next three photos are from the Canto la Concha; first, looking back up at the Samelar
Las Verdianas con Peña Sagra detrás
Mirando hacia el norte
That's the sea on the horizon to the north
Otra vez en el Samelar; Silla Caballo, Lechugales y Jierru a la izq. y el macizo central a la drcha.- ¡qué guapo!
Back up to the Samelar, and views of the rest of the eastern massif on the left, with the central part of Picos beyond to the right
San Carlos, con el Coriscao detrás en el horizonte, que se extiende hasta el Curavacas a la izq.
This is the view to the left of the previous photo
La canal de San Carlos
the cow had been standing at the top of this valley
A look back, not far from the end of the walk
