Video: Paragliding The High Atlas Mountains
In April of 2013, two friends set out to traverse the High Atlas Mountains in Morocco by paraglider. The video below is a short film of that journey, which took 13 days to complete. The dialog of the film is all in French, which makes it difficult to understand much of the time, but the footage more than makes up for it with stunning scenery along the way. This is a great example of a unique adventure and a very cool way to explore a new region.
