Got a short trip to Cantabria coming up next week and trying to figure out what trips to do. I have suggested this traverse but some of the others don't want to do much more than 5 hour trips. The English trip reports suggest this trip should be 5 to 6 hours but I have just translated some...

Hi Glenn, Hope you are having a good time out in the vercors. Just wondering how warm it is over there and what is the smallest sleeping bag I can get away with? Also do you need wetsuits? We are struggling with weight limits at the moment so I am trying to cut back on stuff. Cheers Tam
