I'll get started on this post, but I'm leaving shortly (in about ten minutes) to head for another trek. This time I'll be gone for 8 days to the west and northwest of Ulaanbaator. First, we'll be heading to Kharakorum the 13th century capital established by Chenggis Khan then I'll be going north to the Five Rivers area and then Khovsgol Lake - the deepest and largest in Mongolia. Should be spectacular. If things work out well, I'll do some more riding and even see the Tsataan people - who herd domesticated Rheindeer.
