Cruz De Ferro

Tomorrow,  Thursday,  we climb to 4,934 feet to Cruz De Ferro (Iron Cross). The simple cross has been a monument for all pilgrims through the ages. This is where we leave our stones brought from Santa Barbara on a great pile , beneath the iron cross, as a witness to our journey. We then say the Pilgrim’s prayer that has been recited  for centuries.
