Ugii Lake

Remote lake in Mongolia known for adventure sport fishing, probably because it is so far from everything on mostly bad roads. Much of which are unpaved and rough. In fact, the ger camp runs on solar power right now and is only getting electrical power from the grid installed now.
The pics are various looks at the lake from the shore and from up the ridge behind the camp. The last one is of a Buddhist shrine to the local God who protects the lake. Similar shrines dot the landscape on mountaintops and other thin places. (That's a term from Celtic spirituality, in case you are unfamiliar with it.)Leggi altro
