"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, which is the most horrible thing in the world."

Crashed Plane Engine on the summitAfter summitting Jbel Toubkal together with Maarten en Werner, I decided to climb Tibherine while they were waiting on the Saddle. It was weird to encounter the engine of a crashed Plane on the summit. I knew about the Plane, but thought all remains were scattered along the West-Face, so I was surpised to find the engine on top. A sad story that happened back in the late '60s. Besides that, a great summit with even greater views.
