...inviting road to the top?


After bumbling about on various pistes I came across an inviting looking road up towards a large hill. Thinking it would be nice to get up high and have a look over the surrounding area I drove up to have a look.

...space station on mars?


There had been a sign at the start of the road in arabic, which I suspected might have said 'no entry' or something similar but figured I would try my luck and plead stupid kiwi bloke who only speaks english ("Yeah, gidday maate! Da ya speak any unglish maate?!!) if anybody told me off.

more plateau ...


As it happened there was some kind of military communications setup on the top, and soon after stopping at the summit some military blokes came running over gesturing to the road back down. No harm done it seems, they were nice enough about it, I'd had a look and got some photo's.
