Toubkal 2011
























Were having a great winter over here in Morocco.

The weather has been fairly mild until the last week, we had a big dumping of snow last week which made it hard work getting to the summits, but we made it and it was worth all the hard work the views from Toubkal summit were just awsome.
The snowline is now at 2300mt so were now using porters to get all our kit into the refuge and the mules get a time out.

I'm in Marrakech at the momment prepareing for our next trek in 3 days time. fingers crossed the snow pack should have hardened a little by then.
There's a festival going on in Marrakech at the momment so the evenings are packed with all sorts of antics going on.

The refuge on Toubkal has been really busy with skiing groups and next week is full so its going to fun in there at least it will be warm in the refuge.
Were currently looking into adding white water rafting to our Morocco program. so once you've climbed North Africa's highest mountain you can then raft the white water in North Africa so watch this space.
Right time to get on with things.
