Climbing Scrapbook

Photographs in this scrapbook are taken during events held by the Climbing Special Interest Group of the Al Ain chapter of the Emirates Natural History Group. The photos of the 20.10.2000 ascent of Jebel Qatarrah are contributed by Gerry Buzzell. Click on the images to see the photograph.

At the base of the mountain, climbers heading for 'the chimney'.	The escarpment face, looking towards the 'Hanging Gardens'.	From the 'tabletop', the plateau of Qatarrah, looking off in the distance towards Buraimi and the highway to Dubai.
The summit awaits, a steep incline the last barrier for the hikers.	From the summit, the view behind Qatarrah, Wadi Agran on the horizon.
