We left early again this morning as the group began to get into the routine of life on a trek. Our trek today was 19km and took us over a mixture of terrain and low dunes and stone desert. The trail meandered through the low dunes and at times only heads could be seen above the dunes. Part of the route took us through fossil beds where we quickly found good examples of bellomites and ammonites some over 250 Million years old.
After the usual long lunch to avoid the heat of the day, 35 C, we set off for the walk to the camp at Bourganne which was on the edge of a stony area next to some large impressive sand dunes. Shortly after arriving in camp I set off with Carly and Max to explore these large dunes. We were rewarded with some wonderful views from the tops and walked along some sharp wind swept ridges before returning to camp for mint tea.
