A winter sun rock climbing trip in January 2015 with the Usual Suspects to visit the superlative Anti-Atlas region of Morocco to sample the world class Trad climbing on offer. As for the weather? Well for a week we had 7 days of constant sunshine, daytime temperatures of over 20c so many crags were visited and lots of climbs were clambered. There are more fantastic 3* classics to last several lifetimes and a gazillion acres of virgin rock for any new routers out there! Anyway the entertainment was duly recorded so here is short HD video featuring the amazing Kasbah Tizourgane which is THE place to stay, climbing on the Tusker Pinnacle (the Anti-Atlas equivalent of the Napes Needle) plus the golden sun-kissed White Dome Towers and a smorgasbord of flora and fauna with those crazy caprine tree-climbing goats! 🙂
Also a maa-hoosive thanks to Paul and Emma at Morocco Rock for their excellent and invaluable advice! If you are thinking of going to the Anti-Atlas their superb guidebook (and latest supplement) is THE one to buy ..
Anyway all constructive feedback or comments welcome, please feel free to share and hopefully it will inspire a few folks to visit this amazing area and climb a pinnacle or golden mountain route!
My flights are already booked for next year so go on you know you want to pay a visit….
If you wish to sample the full High Def experience and your computer has enough va va voom, you should be able to change the “Quality” icon to 1080p HD in the bottom right hand corner on the You Tube screen.
