Gallery / High Atlas Explorer

High Atlas Explorer, Morocco, October 2009

Floods and heavy rain in the High Atlas caused us some problems but for the locals the landscape changed a lot - bridges, roads and homes washed away and the Tizi-Tagountsa piste obliterated by a massive landslide. Once south of the High Atlas things warmed up as usual and heat and dust was waiting for us on Lac Iriqui.

Grey day in the Atlas
The tracks in pretty poor state
Bridges missing
Water everywhere
We had to finally take to the river

Yep, hole there, Phil !
