Strapping on the climbing harness before going to the top of Jebel Shams in Oman


Strapping on the climbing harness before going to the top of Jebel Shams in Oman. Jebel Shams, which translates to “Mountain of Sun” is an mountain located in north-eastern of Oman and has an altitude of approximately meters ( feet). Jebel Shams is not really a mountain as you’d expect, it’s a mindboggling crevasse of immense proportions, therefore the name “Oman’s Grand Canyon” or “The Grand Canyon of Arabia” is way more fitting.
