Ice lake

Tsagaan Nuur, the ice lake was a horseshoe shape & we stopped frequently to take photos of the ice sheets, which produced great patterns.
Khosbayar & Bob. Then we all fooled around a little, at this vantage point.
Me with an abandoned Vodka bottle found at this spot.
Our driver, the pronunciation of whose name eluded us, despite many attempts. Mongolian is a language unlike any other I have come across with much tongue gymnastics & hissing sounds.
Yaks, like cows with fringed skirts & feather duster tails were shedding their winter coats.

    Looks so untouched and desolate but beautiful.
