New attempt on Savalan

Hassan had also arranged with a local guy, who owned a LandRover, that he should drive us up to the starting point for our ascent, but something must have gone wrong, because this guy did not show up in Shabil. We waited fifteen-twenty minutes and then started walking up. Certainly we could drive the first part up to where the road ended, but it was probably faster to walk. I felt very comfortable with my two new friends, so for me it was very good, just being in the mountains again with these two nice fellows.
