the northern route

[Preston Pittman]

Lisa, I know there's some info on this northern route on the internet.  I do
a search and post whatever I find.  I'm sure I've seen a map of the northern
route and I may have even printed it out a year or two ago.  I'll let you
know.  However, what I've heard from people who have walked it, is that the
route is not as well marked and there is not the organized system of
refugios which you find on the Camino Frances.  Has anyone out there
actually taken the more northern "sea" route, who can advise Lisa from first
hand experience?  I'll share whatever I can from my notes and from what I
can find on the internet.  Just give my a couple of days to get it all
together.
Peace,
Preston
