Nice looking mountain. These photos should be useful to someone wanting to know about the snow conditions at this time of year. My father crossed to Barcelona in March 1943 by way of a train that carried oranges. Some of his friends crossed by foot through the Pyrennes and though they made it, they suffered from frostbite
thanks for the vote. In june of 2004 with sunny day I've put the polar jacket in the summit of Otal. Yesterday in Peña Roya (west side of the range), 19ºC in Panticosa with sun but 3ºC in the summit very cold (because of this the snow remain still in the mountains). Even some days of the last week it's snowing another time in this mountains (even some years is possible the snowfall in the summits of 3000 meters of Pyrenees in august, 1 or 2 days!!!)
Generally the spring is the nice epoch in Pyrenees for the white landscape and many sunny days but it's more dangerous than summer (changing weather conditions in the same day)
Nice page with beautiful pictures, Rafa! I like it to see these mountains in snow conditions. Last september I climbed Tendeñera in snow free conditions. If you want I can have a look at my pictures from that day to see if I have some other good pictures of Otal seen from other sides to add to your page.
gracias por el voto, realmente la sierra de Tendeñera me gusta cada vez más a pesar de estar donde está. Es que claro una vez en Bujaruleo entre subir el Otal o subir el Taillón por la Brecha de Rolando, pues casi que ni hay color,...pero creo que se merecía una página este monte y sirve de excusa para dar a conocer esta sierra.
