Just returned from Libya
Hello
We just returned from Libya. We did the L1 and L3 route described in Chris Scott' s book. Absolut fantastic and doable easily exactly as described in the book. In the meanwhile we tried to cross directly from Idri to the lakes but the tracks taken out from the russian maps were closed. We explored for three days -one of the best experiences in my life- but we did not manage to pass so we turned west and reached Sebha.
So the Idri-Sebha route through the desert is quite easy to be done and if someone is interested I have the whole track fom the GPS.
Later some Libyans told me that they cross from Idri directly to the lakes in 9 hours through the dunes ,but may be they know exactly how to pass.
If someone has an idea of this route please let me know.
All the best
Kostas
