The mission is climbing. we have a 80m rope a few quick draws a set of stoppers and we are ready! So — Todra or Tafraout? The sports climbing place or the place with boulders and alpine style climbing? After hiding from the police in a Berber cap, talking down the hotel price because there is no shower, getting stuck in a nice town and puking my guts out the Moroccain public transport decided to strike. No more caps and no more busses.

«So the only way left was hitch hiking, since la grève was still on.»

And after two nights on the road countless rides and quite a few kilometers on foot we reached tafraout.

«Dude we took totally the wrong gear!»

But then there is simpler forms of climbing were you don't need gear. I mean we have our shoes — that kinda helps. Well we thought about using the 80m rope as a mattress... in the end we were lucky enough to meet some other climbers with a boulder mattress. sweet!
