I was thinking the same thing.

 next March,

But in the summer.  Wouldn't the snow be a bit of a hindrance in
March?  I've only been to Andora in the summer, so I'm guessing.

Definitely - why not make an OSM Holiday out of it?  Pick a long
weekend and hold a mapping party there.  I'm sure you'd get a few
people flying in from further afield for a weekend in the mountains
and there is a sizable Spanish OSM contingent.

I would be keen to come along, but March is bad for me.
