MS8 blocked going west
Yesterday we joined MS8 mid-way, south of FZ, aiming for Tata (did FZ to M'hamid last April).
I know you can be turned back by military if you're starting out from Tata, but we were turned due north at a checkpoint N29°31'30.9", W7°22'56.3" and sent across a stony plateau to Tissint, after being told this was a military zone. The piste is on OSM.
I couldn't establish whether this was temporary or permanent. Anyone had similar?
Between FZ and M'hamid I think we encountered only one checkpoint, but there must have been six or more yesterday between FZ and us getting diverted north.
