The Lama Memorials
 

Zarzora Expedition placed two marble plaques in memory of late Samir Lama, the renowned desert expert who died in February 2004 while planning for one last trip to his beloved Egyptian Sahara. The first memorial was placed at Sugar-loaf hill, almost halfway between Dakhla and Abu Ballas. The second was placed on top of the Gilf Kebir Plateau, on a terrace overlooking Wadi Sura "Swimmers' Cave", some 40 kilometers to the southwest of the so-called Lama-Monod Pass.

May his soul rest in peace, for the desert shall remember him...forever.
