Crossing by camel - maps?
I'm researching a planned east-west saraha crossing by camel that 3 friends and I are hoping to do next year, mainly for the adventure of course, but also to raise money for the children's cancer institute of australia. Currently our rough route is from Red Sea near Cairo, Siwa, Al Jaghbub, Sebha, Ghat, Djanet, Tamanrasset(hoping that the situation in Southern Algeria dies down a bit by then), Bordj Moktar, Timbuktu, Oualata, Tidjikja, Rosso, Dakar.
Our major problem at the moment is maps. We have the Michelin 953, and International Travel Maps - Sahara, but finding anything else of use is next to impossible here in Sydney. Does anyone know where I could get digital copies of the IGN series, the Soviet series or the US Defence series? Thanks in anvance.
