This tour takes place within the Ordesa and Monte Perdido National Park, through the four valleys and gorges that make up the Park: Ordesa, Añisclo, Escuaín and Pineta. The starting point is the reservoir of Pineta, where we leave the car and climb on foot in a couple of hours until Montinier hut, where we spend the first night. The second night is spent under the three Marys, and last night we sleep in the Goriz Refuge.

Spring is the best season for this four days round trip, because there is snow over 1.500 m and the avalanche risk is minimun. Depending on the year, between March and April should be good time for coming.

We say goodbye to our uncle John "The Traveler", as he would have liked: SMILING.
Thanks for teaching us about the life and we hope that, wherever you are, you don't stop doing good magic tricks to amaze everyone!.
A big kiss from your little nephews.

While you make the GR-11 during the summer months, do not forget you're in the Pyrenees, and get ready, because you can get cold!. Changes in temperature between day and night, are usually quite sharp, so a reliable tent and a good sleeping bag, are essential to enjoy the night time along the Pyrenees.

From Los Angeles we can fly to Utah, rent a car and travel for some hours to get to one of the most impressive national parks we have seen, Yellowstone.

One of the attractions of Death Valley National Park is the place known as the artist's palette. It is important to wake up early in the morning to see the sunrise in this place, and delight with natural colors that are observed in different rocks.
These colors come from the composition of different minerals, including iron which gives you red, sulfur yellow and green mica.

In winter, Yosemite National Park is partialy closed becauso of the snow up on the high passes, but there is a lot of Park accessible for getting lost a few days on it. To reach the Glacier Point and enjoy the spectacular views of Half Dome, you can do well on foot or skis, as they trace the machine until the end of the road where you can camp. And though it's winter, do not forget food in the car, and when you sleep, leave the food in the boxes entitled to do so... unless you want to see a bear pretty close to you!

In the southern Sierra Nevada, about 4 hours drive from LA, we reach the Sequoia National Park, where we see some of the tallest trees in the world. And if you're lucky, you'll see bears crossing the road or in the woods. They say that if you find one, you have to make noise with whatever, and run to him... just do it!

Without a doubt, San Francisco is one of those cities that are worth visiting at least once in life. Bastion of the liberal movement in U.S.A. and with great street life, is a city for walking or taking the trams that run on its steep slopes, visit the islands of the bay, or get lost by their different and special neighborhoods. And if you have a car, do not hesitate to go down the coast on Route 101.

Right at the entrance of the National Park, we will find one of the campsites in the area in which we can sleep. If you arrive in the afternoon, do not worry about the guard, just get relax and wait for the next day to solve it. But if you want more amenities, there are villages around with accommodations.
