I got about a quater of the way but my Fiance and a canadian guy continued, here is their story -

So I went on with avi and we ended up walking for 4 and a half hours, it was an absolute killer as there was no shade, we got to the top of three mountains and met some kids who tried to sell us tree branches, so I gave them a stick of lip balm, I showed them how to use it, so i supose there are some mango smelling mountain kids with goo smeared all over there faces today. We were going to head down when a four wheel drive drove by and we flagged them down and hitched the bumpiest ride ever, the four and a half hour walk was over in about 25 minutes. when we got out avi accidentally smashed the back window of the truck and tried to find out how much it would cost to fix, he ended up giving them 20 $us and 20 dirhams, he told me after they left that he was thinking about bartering, but you arent really in a good position for it after smashing someones window.
