Imlil and the Atlas mountains

Morocco with Lisa and Ash

For the last three days of our trip, we went up the Imlil in the snow covered Atlas mountains and went on a two day hike with a guide and a mule over a ridge and down to a neighboring village called Tizi Oussem and then back. It was a very beautiful trip.
