| mortinson Expert Date registered: Apr 2006 Location: Madrid, España Vehicle(s): '98 G300TD LWB, '98 E300TD Saloon Posts: 1355  | Collado de la Quesera, 28 November 2008 We were there yesterday... gorgeous, amazing, gobsmacking!.... We crossed La Quesera without a problem (there wasn't too much snow) but after having lunch in Riaza, Segovia we went back to Wadi-al-Hajara (وادي الحجارة) and drove like 70 miles of beautiful snowy tracks... we ended up on a hill near Cantalojas, beaten by a powerful snow drift while the night fell upon us... we lost the track within so much snow and it took us 3 hours to find our way down the very steep banks of the hill to Cantalojas.... Most pictures are already in their relevant album: http://picasaweb.google.com/mortinson3/Quesera
The are some beautiful ones missing, made while the sun was coming down so do please return later and they will all be there! To see the albums of previous Quesera days, please click on the pictures below to choose each of the other albums:
Enjoy! | ||||||||

It took us almost three hours to reach the village down the hill which was at all times within eyesight.... Edited by mortinson 11/30/2008 8:59 AM | ||||||||

Posts: 686 | RE: Collado de la Quesera, 28 November 2008 sjtymko - 12/1/2008 3:02 AM Snow in Spain AND the Netherlands at the end of November but not in Alberta, Canada! Who denies changes in global climate?!?! Not that I'm complaining...I hate snow (yeah, I know I live in the wrong place). Great pics, it looks like you had a blast. Thanks for sharing. Take care, Steve the difference is that canada has 5 months of snow !, I would hate it for that long  | ||||||||
