MONGOLIA - Otgontenger Mountain, Zavkhan

Another wonderful view of Mongolia, shows Otgontenger Mountain and the sky looks so blue and no cloud. So lovely..  Thank you so much Andrew for the card.


"Otgontenger (Mongolian: Отгонтэнгэр, lit. "youngest sky") is the highest peak in the Khangai Mountains in Mongolia. Its summit is currently calculated to reach an elevation of 4,008 meters above mean sea level (some earlier topographic maps record a maximum elevation of 4,021 m). The mountain is located in Zavkhan Province and is the only peak in the Khangai range that is capped with a permanent glacier. The south face of Mount Otgontenger is the most extensive granite wall in Mongolia."
