John and our hire car Over the last two weeks I have been out in Spain with a strong team from Scotland, England, Ireland and Wales!! Over the two weeks we tried out as many different venues in the North East of Spain. First we visited Terradets which compiled of stacks and stacks of amazing tufa climbing.

For those of us who live in the warmer, southern region of the U.S., the fall season bring relief from the heat at last. That means we get head back outside and enjoy our favorite wild space for the first time in a few months. It is also the perfect season for camping, as the days are still warm, but the nights are perfect for spending time in a tent.Recently I had the opportunity to test out the Kelty Cosmic Down 20º sleeping bag in just those conditions, and came away quite impressed.
