Terelg National Park


Due to the change in our schedule that has us remaining in UB for both weeks our SCC has agreed to "keep the Canadian entertained" and is taking us on a day of "cultural activities". In true Mongolia style upon learning that two of our team mates are also at loose ends on Saturday arrangements have been made for all of us to go to the Terelg National Park together.

To facilitate this our next SCC has been called and will provide a vehicle and driver. I don't know if I have ever met a more hospitable people than the Mongolians. Terelg Park is located roughly 50km out of UB. Today's post is the day in photos. Sufficient to say that it was incredible. The scenery is amazing and the people are wonderful, we are very lucky to be able to be a part of this grand adventure.

Incredible rock formations
satellite dish and all...
