Climbing up and down the mountains was the most physically demanding thing I have ever done. The so-called trails were nothing more than places where rainwater runs off the mountain - bare,living rock covered with small stones, wet leaves and slippery mud. In places the trail was diffent - cut into the side of a cliff and sometimes narrowing to 30 cm. However,going down was the worst. Footing terrible and muscles quivering from fatigue, many places seemed very dangerous, but everyone makes it. We have heard of no accident.
In any case we have finished the mountain, at least for now.
From now on we will mostly be walking along roads.

congrats on conquering the mountain.
(I know you won't see this while you are on the hajj but want you to know later that friends are enjoying seeing/hearing about your adventure as you do it).
