I've been meaning to get in about the Mamores for a few years but for one reason or another never quite done anything apart from drive by. I've got to say it was worth the wait. That said, tere's not really much to write in this trip report - I left late, arrived late, got held up by Germans (actually, that one's new), walked up the hills, cursed my knee on the way down, cursed myself for not taking the jetboil and meal packet, drove home too fast listening to bad music. Such monotony.
