11-Nov-2004 -- We set off on an extended off-road driving trip for the `Īd holidays. Our intention was to travel down the west side of Oman from the UAE all the way to Ṣalāla. During the trip we planned to visit 4 confluence points.

This was the first. Although a long way from our off-road start in `Ibriy, it was fairly easy with the point being in the middle of a vast sand/gravel plain.

Continued at 21N 56E.
