GR11 Day 23, Refugio de Cap de Lauset to past Refugi de Conangles.

 June 27th 

Stayed cloudy last night but the sky had cleared by the morning and the sun was starting to brighten the tops.

Looking back
Took the scenic route down to the Estany de Lauset to look at the dam. There is a carpark here, very useful if I ever come here again!
The first lake
The dam
A stiff climb zigzags up to the Coll d'Anglios and down the rocky hillside to the beautiful Estany de Baix with some lovely camping spots.
Estany de Baix 
The descent from there is fairly brutal, steep and bouldery before reaching a good path that follows the river down to the road.
Down through the trees 
The Refugio was full but I sat there eating and drinking until a pile of kids arrived and I moved on up the hill to find a nice little place to camp in the trees.

The flies were a nuisance and I had to lie in the tent with the inner zipped up to keep them out.
