01-Nov-2010 -- Continued from 26N 19E.

This Confluence is located in the south-eastern part of Idhān Murzuq. An easy prey for us, as this large sand sea is very flat there and allows to drive as the crow flies (btw these animals are indeed to be found there).

The area is not frequented by tourists, only occasionally heavy loaded Mercedes trucks pass here along the eastern edge of the higher dunes on their smuggler trails from Niger to the North.

Continued at 24N 12E.
