3 hrs, 3.0 kms
Normally my Superhikes have sections that are interesting and some long boring stretches
. My Anti-atlas has been an exception: the scenery has been magnificent almost every step of the way. Well… the first stretch back from Tahala does feel a bit ordinary, compared to the stunning views of yesterday and the amazing rock formations of Aguerd Oudad. It is nice, with hills on both sides dotted with a few trees and occasional herd of goats… but nothing like yesterday. Looks like today might be an anti-climax day.
I reach Boutabi, a quiet village with a mix of simple homes and big, recently built ones… not much going on here… But not far beyond, the cool rock formations start again, beginning with some rocks stacked on top of each other in the shape of a reclined head, with a big nose poking upwards—worth a video clip.
