I recently tried the North Twin with my buddy Hayden. He wrote about it on the Patagonia blog here:

Before I talk about the North Twin, let me finish off Morocco first.
I am currently in the UK, en route to Italy. Very excited.
Essouira. |
Pablo has slack skills. I do not. |
I call this Blue Boats. |
Moroc yallah. |
Natural enemies? Neither is very bothered by the other, I think we could learn a lot from this bird and this cat. |
The Medieval fortress of Essouira. They filmed Othello here. |
Tony Touch on our way to the Taghia Gorge. |
Tony T on Barraka. 700m of plaisir 7b. |
Jebel Oujdad towers over the village of Taghia. |
The tanning pits in Fez. |
Typical roadside cafe fare. |
The ultra-cosmique town of Chefchaouen. Everything is blue. |
A cute German couple we met in Chef... Haha. They both like to wear Arc'teryx. |
The Berber culture is pretty cool. |
Chef kitty. |
Tony T aka the German in Akchour. The stoke-factor is huge. |
Fez medina. |
The mega wall in Akchour. 1000' overhanging tufas. Radical. |
Akchour is a half hour from the Med! |
The lush Akchour Valley and one of its inhabitants. |

Yo Jason. Just wanna say props for goin after the North Twin- shows a level of commitment that seems rare amongst the new generation (at least in N. America- maybe the unknown eastern euros are still willing...)
Anyway, congrats for bearing the torch of the old school Rockies heros.
Best
