this is a typical weather situation on the foothill of the altai.

| passage near the khuvsgul lake | Lars F. Menzel | ||||
horses have long been an essential part of mongols life.
the bond between people and horses goes back at least a thousand years.
most of them are living freely in herds on open land but are owned by nomadic people.
only to milk they have to come “home”.
at this passage near the khuvsgul lake a herd of horses crosses a small river.
