What is the current state of the Tizi-n-Test pass?

Hi,
Can anyone tell us the current state of the Tizi-n-Test pass, we are interested in going that way in a 4x4 truck camper on Sunday.

The Test wasn't affected as badly as the Tichka by the massive rainfalls and I've not heard of any problems since. There's currently no snow at the level of the pass and freezing level is over 3200m. Forecast is sunny but rather chilly 5ºC.

Let us know how you find it.

In the end we took the motorway. We had done some rather challenging mountain driving on the scenic Ain Leu route in the snow. It was beautiful, but for the remaining week we opted for a lazy Taroudant Agadir Essaouira circuit. Not exactly adventurous, but it worked well for us - chilled out and Christmas on the beach.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
