\nZack Geiger \u201913<\/strong> and Andy Burns<\/strong> \u201915<\/strong> took a three-day tour through the Sahara Desert near Merzouga, Morocco. The pair rode camels into the desert, snapping a picture on the sands with their Tiger Rag on the way to a nomadic campsite. \u201cIt was an exhilarating trip made all the more exciting by angry, spitting camels and our guide quitting on day two after a dispute with the driver. It truly was the trip of a lifetime,\u201d Burns says.
