This excellent collection of photos was taken by Tuula Packington during the first week of November 2008. She spent a week here doing various activities. The photos really convey the cold and reality of what was a very changeable week, weatherwise. Thanks to Tuula for allowing us to show these here.

Tracks in the snow
The upper reaches of the Rio Mulhacen

Stuck in deep snow!
The sands near Trevenque obliterated by winter snow
