Weather Conditions

I will be on the Sahara Camel Trek (MPSC) on Feb 28 - Mar 14, 2009. What low temperatures can be expected during the trekking phase (Oum Jrane to Tanamouste)? Trying to determine what type of sleeping bag to take as well as whether to bring gloves and a woolen hat for warmth. Will the wind conditions be right for the creation of sandstorms during the trekking phase? Trying to determine if I need to bring a mask to protect the face and goggles to cover the eyes. What amount of rain, if any, can be expected to fall in Marrakech? Trying to determine whether I need to take any rain gear.

15 Day Sahara Camel Trek, Morocco. Feb 28, 2009

I'm in Texas, USA. Did the Everest Base camp trek 2 years ago w/Imaginative-Traveler. Excellent trip. Looking forward to Morocco trip.

Shoes and Night Goggles in the Desert

I'm going on the 15 day camel trek w/9 days in the desert. I've heard you should wear everything from sandals to hiking boots. What are the best kind of shoes to trek in the desert? Also, I've heard that you can see a lot of wildlife at night w/night goggles and it's really amazing. Is it worth buying them?

Your web page has the minimum group size as four but a U.S. travel company says that number has recently been changed to six. Please let me know which minimum group size number is correct.
