Wabah
Crater
We've had a
glimpse of the
crater, we've had a
sandstorm, we've had
a night's sleep, and
now it's time to see
if the crater is
actually worth all
the effort! Barren
rock and desert all
around, but a number
of oases supporting green spongy grass
and palm trees make
a welcome change of
scenery as we start
the climb down from
the top of the rim. There
is a thin layer of
salt crust on top,
hiding several
inches of mud below.
You're alright if
you keep on walking,
but go to slowly or
stop and you'll sink
up to the ankles at
least. Verdict?
Well worth it!
