Abstract
We consider a continuous time random walk in random environment on such that its potential can be approximated by the function given by where a Brownian motion with diffusion coefficient and parameters , are such that and . We show that -a.s.\ (where is the averaged law) with . In fact, we prove that by showing that there is a trap located around (with corrections of smaller order) where the particle typically stays up to time . This is in sharp contrast to what happens in the "pure" Sinai's regime, where the location of this trap is random on the scale .
