26th July Arrens-Marsous

When I awoke the fog had returned.
The walk up to the Col de Tortes was so steep that in places I needed hand-holds. It was not exposed so it was well in my comfort zone. The Col itself revealed huge rock slabs to the right disappearing into the fog below. The path went left for a winding route to a road that I drove on last year, the D918.
The GR10 crossed the road and dropped a long way to the valley far below before coming up to join the road again. I road walked the couple of miles with great views.
A 300' ascent from the road arrived at the Col de Soulor. From here it was a steady descent to Arrens-Marsous.
I found a campsite just on the edge of the village, with the small local supermarche nearby.
After a shower and clothes wash, I decided I was going to spend 2 nights here. I am enjoying being in the Pyrenees and in no hurry to finish the walk.
