Hi!
I am coming back from the Gilf/Uweinat today.
Things have changed again:
- We had to pay 60 US $ per person and the 3 week trip not 200 $/day
- Lama has got a permission to travel

Hello Ursula, welcome back !

How many were you in the group ? The $200/day was per group, not per person.

Was it your group that walked into Karkur Talh to the sites near the entrance, then out again? The tracks of the 5 cars looked like Lama...

(to my knowledge Lama must arrange permits through Siag...)

Hello all

Welcome back Ursula.

Andras: the 5 cars in uwinat were a group of foreigners living and working in Cairo
Were I met one of them in egyptoffroad show room and had a little chat about their route, latter I heard that they had a broken car (Cherokee) and had to leave it behind
And send a mechanic from the oasis to get it.

All the best

Hello Andras

The footprints were from Pan Arab Tours/Sun Tours from Germany (9.3.03) They walked very close to the minefield...We met them going to the "waterfall"/Guelta when we made camp there in this sidearm from Karkur Talh.

We were 14 persons (incl. Lamas and the officer) and travelled for 3 weeks

What about this rumours about you having had problems with the army on your last trip?

Not that I know of http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/ubb/smile.gif Our officer was a very nice chap, no problems whatsoever (except of course for having to pay the extortive fee)

Trip account will be up on the FJ website soon.
