There's hope for Thursday.

First flights Saturday 22nd September

Tomorrow is looking promising.

PYRENEES HIKE & FLY

On Wednesday 22^nd August, Dean Crosby and Steve Nash will set off on a hike and fly adventure across the Pyrenees. We will start from Hendaye in France and will either travel on foot or underneath their paragliders to Cadaques on Spain’s Mediterranean coast; totally unsupported, bivving out along the way.  Although we are not following any set route, it will be very similar to the well-known GR11 route that traverses this range of mountains. We will be driven only by the weather in an attempt to maximise the flying opportunities.

We will both be bloging at http://www.activeedge.co.uk/blog/ and can be followed live on -http://chorlton.homeip.net/spotmap/pyrenees.html  

We will also be tweeting on the following:
