Le 2 décembre 2015
Le canyon de Tiwi, situé immédiatement au sud de ceux de Ta’ab et Shab parcouru les jours précédents, constitue l’un des plus longs et intéressants d’Oman, mais la navette routière entre ses points de départ et d’arrivée s’avère également parmi les plus ingrates, avec près de 100 km et près de 2 heures de pistes défoncées. Vu cette contrainte et le dos esquinté de Nicolas on opte donc pour une découverte du canyon en aller-retour depuis le village de Mibam à l’aval. On quitte ce joli village perché au-dessus de sa palmeraie et du maillage de falaj par un sentier rive gauche du wadi, et après environ 1 heure de marche l’encaissement s’accentue et le canyon à proprement parler commence. C’est un très long canyon extrêmement encaissé et assez aquatique, comportant de nombreuses et longues vasques malheureusement souvent eutrophisées. Demi-tour sera fait ce jour au bout de quelques heures pour ne pas rentrer de nuit, après de nombreux biefs reliés par autant de passages d’escalade, sans avoir parcouru plus du tiers du canyon ! Il conviendra donc de revenir pour l’intégrale par le village abandonné d'Umq Bir à l’amont, afin entre autres de découvrir les sources chaudes et la grotte de tuf à mi-canyon !
la veille au soir bivouac 1000 étoiles sur la plage de Fins...
