Hasn't voted | Hi dmiki! Thanks for that - yeh that blog is run by a good mate of mine Des. I didn't put the link up as it doesn't give forecasts, however, it does another job of telling us what has fallen in the area. I'll stick in the page, thanks again. Matt | |

Hasn't voted | Hi, it is the Central High Atlas area. The Western High Atlas are the group of mountains stretching (roughly) west of the tizi-n-Test pass towards agadir. The heart of the Western High Atlas is the Tichka Plateau, with notable and remote peaks in the area. | |

Hasn't voted | I thought that the Central High Atlas was the area around M'Goun? I've visited only once so I'm far away from being an expert on Moroccan mountains, but here is a link with extensive info, including descriptions of the Western, Central and Eastern High Atlas. I found several similar descriptions. Are you saying this is wrong? Mind you, I also found one reference (Mountaineering in the Moroccan High Atlas, by Des Clark) that does indeed say that the area west of Tizi N'Test is sometimes called the Western High Atlas - but I did not read anywhere that the area around Toubkal was the Central High Atlas. | |
