From the Field

A herding dog on a gravel trail overlooking a green Altai valley at dusk
A yak grazing in a rocky Altai meadow under a clear blue sky
Pink sunset clouds and a crescent moon over golden steppe hills
Two white gers beside a river with snow-capped Altai peaks behind
Yellow wildflowers in a mountain meadow with snow-capped peaks beyond
A cloudy hillside with distant gers and a grazing herd beside a river
A traveler balancing on horseback, arms outstretched, in an open meadow
A host family foraging plants on a hillside with a pack horse
A campfire and cookware beside handmade wooden gear on the trail
A river winding through a green valley beneath snow-streaked peaks
An alpine lake framed by snow-capped mountains with distant gers
