Tony Howard's Desert Adventures
As well as climbing in many other parts of the world, Tony Howard has been exploring the mountains of North Africa and the Middle East for 40 years. He has opened numerous new treks and climbs of all grades and discovered ancient Bedouin hunting routes described by some as amongst the best mountain adventures in the world. The talk covers the best of these trips, with glimpses of mountains still seldom visited.
