Breakfast at Skye Camp Azrou. [02:58]
May 2011: 16 month old Skye's mum Colette & Auntie Amanda from Sussex UK wanted to experience some 5 star wild camping in the middle Atlas cedar forests above Azrou. Colette & Amanda picked their camp spot in a dense cedar forest 17 K up from Azrou exploring Google satellite map. We made their custom shop of fresh pasteurised, milk, lamb, ice, porridge oats Etc before heading for the hills where we traded for some organic eggs from a remote Berber settlement on route. Banjo music was recorded live at Skye camp preformed by Morocco Unexplored transport team member Isham.

Argan oil woman's cooperative. [01:29]
Morocco. Traveling from Tafraout to Essaouira. We visited a woman's cooperative. Before modern times, the Berbers (also known as the Amazighs) of Morocco would collect undigested Argan pits from the waste of goats which climb the trees to eat their fruit. The pits were then ground and pressed to make the nutty oil used in cooking and cosmetics. However, the oil used in cosmetic and culinary products available for sale today has most likely been harvested directly from the tree and processed with machines. All argan sold today is produced by a women's cooperative that shares the profits among the local women of the Berber tribe. The cooperative has established an ecosystem reforestation project so that the supply of argan oil will not run out and the income that is currently supporting the women will not disappear. The money is providing health care and education to the local women, and supporting the entire community as a whole. The most labour intensive part of oil-extraction is removal of the soft pulp (used as animal feed) and the cracking by hand, between two stones, of the hard nut. The seeds are then removed and gently roasted. This roasting accounts for part of the oil's distinctive, nutty flavor. The traditional technique for oil extraction is to grind the roasted seeds to paste, with a little water, in a stone rotary quern. The paste is then squeezed between hands to extract the oil. The extracted paste is still oil-rich and is used as animal feed. Oil produced ...

Maroc , Guelmin ( Goulimine ) , Mai 2002 ( lire la description ) [01:20]
Jeudi 16 Mai 2002 . Parmi les confins du Maroc , il ya cette route conduisant à Goulimine ( à 105 kilomètres de Tiznit ) . Généralement en bon état et assez sinueuse ( au niveau de Tizi Mighert ) elle offre d'assez beau paysages . Le problème ce sont les camions chargés de vivre , passant péniblement les cols . Le problème encore récurant au Maroc est bien souvent l'inexistence d'autoroutes en plus des routes nationales , reliant les principales localités ... En chemin , Harold Ambleside s'est fait arrêté par un gendarme , non pas pour se faire contrôler , mais par envie d'échanger quelques mots ... On est quand même à 2250 kilomètres de Saint -Louis du Sénégal ... Mais à une trentaine de kilomètres de Goulimine , le baroudeur remarqua les arbres squelettiques du périmètre forestier de Tagannt planté en 1959 . Un témoignage peut -être de l' avancée certaine du désert lié au réchauffement climatique . Goulimine n'apparut pas terrible à gglebaroudeur . La ville moderne occuppe une grande superficie du territoire communal . La ville primitive , sur les hauteurs est un fouilli de ruelles assez sales . Les habitants apparemment peu habitués au tourisme , vous observe comme une chose curieuse .... A SUIVRE : Maroc Goulimine , oasis aux portes du désert

Morocco The One ( part 1 ) [02:41]
these are some picture i took when i traveled tow years ago , I'm not a photograph but i love photography and i'm not good at it :( The Atlantic to the west, the Mediterranean to the north, wonderful beaches, four mountain ranges with cascading waterfalls, century old cedar forest, eternal snows, immense plains flowering with orange and almond blossom, rivers that lay out a carpet of greenery to the threshold of the desert and carve out the most spectacular gorges. From the Straits of Gibraltar to Mauritania, nature has made Morocco one of the most beautiful countries in the world, the country that is a feast of the senses.
