Is it possible to post them in one of these forums? It seems that photos posted in FaceBook are only available to hose who sign up for FaceBook. I don't have the nerve to do that. I have heard too many horror stories about the so-called social network sites.

Hi,
We have had snow here very early and so today I drove up from St Jean
Pied de Port to Ibaneta and then walked up to the top of Route Napoleon
with my trusty Nikon. I've posted the results in an album on the
Errecaldia page of Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/maison.errecaldia>
and will be posting some onto the site at www,errecaldia.com
A few thoughts about being up there. While it is incredibly beautiful
it's also very cold, there was little wind, lot's of sun but even though
I was wearing thermals, thick corduroy trousers, and a fleece lined
jacket I could still feel it. If you go off the beaten track snowshoes
are a necessity and a pair of poles with snow rings at the tips.
I'm going to try driving up route Napoleon from the St Jean side
tomorrow but suspect I won't get much beyond the road turning off to
Arneguy because with the lack of tree cover on the French side of the
route there tends to be much more drifting.
I'll take this opportunity to wish you all well for the coming festive
season.
Take care
Tim
