Summer at 48°N

A few pictures and a short video from the last several weeks here in UB:

Returning from an overnighter on Bogd Khan.

"Doc" pouring everyone numerous shots of the wodka....

Ochka is too cute when she falls asleep. 

The start of a weekend trip with a coworker to his mom's summer home about 70km N of UB.

Buyan has four children - 2,5,9, and 14...they love it here.

Buyan starting the fire right next to the creek.

Kurt decided to bring his fly rod and...success! He caught a 10" Rainbow, it was delicious.

This area was one of the prettiest I've seen so far in Mongolia.

Old railroad car?

Such a cool, lush, relaxing place.

Their goldie

Awesome weekend getaway!

 Back in the cityscape

 Summer construction season has entire roads shut down and being dug up (?)

Things are very nice and green here, since it has probably rained over a foot this summer.
