The Atlas Mountains, Morocco, February 2004

This was an 8 days trip to the Atlas Mountains in Morocco with Thomas and Erik (from Kamchatka), 5 other guests (Peder, Jonas, Fred, Micke and Daniel) and two guides (Kristin and Mikke), in February 2004.

There was actually less snow at the top, so the last 300 vertical meters of the climb had to be done without skis. I think the snow simply blows away from the top.
