I start off the day doing an endo on a nasty abrasive surface and take a while getting cleaned and bandaged up. All the rains have apparently made the planned jeep trail route down to the Ouarzazate plains impassable for our support vehicles so we must turn south and follow the paved routes down for the day. We stay at a hotel in Tarmigt overlooking the flooded river and Ourzazate. In the morning, we take a quick but fun tour of one of the many local movie studios and get to see sets from lots of Hollywood movies that are filmed in the area. We then head out to spend the day riding through some spectacular scenery on our way south to Agdz.

Here's a little video montage (1:40 minutes, 26 MB) of this part of the trip:
