Description of Presentation: A review of a Christmas trip to Morocco with a fellow student rock climber in December 2000. The majority of the sport climbing was in the Todra Gorge of the High Atlas mountains near Marrakech, with stops in Tangiers, Casablanca, Fez, and Chefchaouen. The trip occurred during the holy month of Ramadan which enhanced the cultural and nutritional experiences.
