It's been a while since anyone mentioned Pelican 16...... I and my good mate mossproof recently spent some time in Mauri exploring. One of the points of interest involved a slight detour into Polisario held Western Sahara......
I'd have loved to have spent a night there but it very difficult to evaluate the risk, so we spent about an hour crawling all over it taking pics and then retreated back across the border. One of the military check point commanders near Ben Amiera was very positive, apart from him everyone else including the guide at Bab Sahara thought it was madness. In the end we found the area very quiet and the border is best described as porous....
I'd like to thank Florence for the inspiration for this part of the trip!
