*Climbing Mt. Casupo*

Now, when I say "Mt. Casupo," I admit it's rather an over-statement: I'm not sure Casupo is tall enough to be an official mountain, but it is sure rugged enough to brag about climbing! Embarrassingly, I nearly passed out the first time I attempted to climb it! I attribute a good part of that to the heat and lack of water bottle, but of course the rest was lack of fitness and lack of pacing- only the fittest can climb Casupo quickly. I did end up making it to the top the second time I climbed it, but only with the help of a few much-needed rests along the way!


Casupo is on the outskirts of Valencia, one of the first mountains surrounding the city.



As you can see, I wasn't the only one to make it this far. Casupo is a popular climbing spot.
