Living out of a rental car in Spain, days 1 and 2

I'd been wanting to go back to Spain since last Spring, but had no particular plan or reason so I kept pushing the date. Finally, I just bought a ticket. Most airlines give you 24 hours to cancel a flight, so why not?  >>

Spent my first night on the road at the famous Area 112. I decided not to stop at Area 107 or Area 124 because 112 seemed like a nice middle ground.

Thunderbolt Peak Night Hike

Thunderbolt is the most technical of the California 14,000 foot peaks, but only because of the last 15 or so feet. My first time trying it almost 20 years ago, I made it to those last feet but decided not to climb them. At 5.9, the moves were well within my ability, but solo at altitude in the cold and wind I wasn't 100% certain.  >>
