Camino Frances: Mid Sep - Late Oct

[Aloha!]

Aloha All! Filling in the months not mentioned, anyone have any info on the type weather we can expect departing around 15 Sept and ending six weeks later? Doing the gear logistics now and trying to figure out how much cold(er) weather clothing we'll need. Look forward to hearing from you all soon. Aloha!

I finished last time in Santiago around the last week of Sep and it was still hot - but it rained a lot during the last week - it was just like being at home!

I would walk with much the same kit, but a good sleeping bag as it can get cold at night and decent waterproofs, along with quick drying tshirts.

Aloha Leslie!

Thanks for the words of wisdom; most appreciated. I distinctly believe that a good sleeping bag is needed for any longer distanced hike. This one will be no exception. Gotta sleep! My raingear is Frogg Toggs (love 'em) and the shirt thing I'm still debating. Right now only planning on taking one long sleeved hiking shirt (TrailRider Eco), silk long john shirt (maybe 2 depending) and possibly (but not sure it's needed) a short sleeve quick dry/wicking tee. Possibly too much? Plenty of time to work it all out.

Thank you again for taking the time to respond.

Aloha! Ann
