"As I drive toward these mountains, I think about the tragedy that has occurred in Texas. I hope God comforts those who lost loved ones and that the American government helps with the reconstruction of the area.
Nature can be very beautiful, but it is also sometimes destructive and unpredictable. In the face of its force, we can only anticipate and mitigate the damage.
Establishing an inventory of risk areas and educating the public is necessary in these times when natural phenomena are so sudden and unpredictable." — franciscobirruezo • Jul 5, 2025

"Today I set off near El Sabinar to climb Castillico del Orihuelo and then Piedra Garre Peak. It was a beautiful day in these mountains; the blossoming season here was later. Today, Nature gave me a lesson in botany, another in fauna, and yet another in geology—all in return for my physical effort. I definitely came out on top because today I saw a wild garden, where all the pieces of life fit together perfectly." — franciscobirruezo • Jun 4, 2025

"I return to Cerro de San Ginés after almost eight years. The mountains remain in place, but animal and plant life are taking over, to the detriment of human construction.
Mining activity was very important here in the past, and numerous shafts and mine entrances have been covered by undergrowth and fenced off to prevent accidents.
The many centuries-old chapels built here in honor of San Ginés are falling apart due to the rain and wind. The dome of the oldest one at the summit has collapsed. It's a shame because its silhouette could be seen for several kilometers." — franciscobirruezo • Jun 3, 2025
