We climbed the tallest dune in the grouping of dunes we were in, known as Erg Chigaga. The climbing was difficult but the views were fantastic. There were a variety of camels wandering the dunes. We ran into one guy herding camels around, he asked us for a cigarette. I almost wished I had a cigarette to give him, since being a camel-herd in the Sahara is probably pretty rough sledding. On later reflection, I decided that as far as I know he just takes care of tourist camels, and probably gets all the cigarettes he wants.
