The first morning out of Ulaanbaatar the road unspools like a map drawn in dust: low ridges, endless grass, and the occasional ger camp punctuating the horizon. Wind pushes at the van as you pass the basalt fingers of Elsen Tasarhai and the open, green valley of Khugnu Khaan Natural Reserve where herds graze with a casual authority. By night you sleep in tourist gers and camps under a wide sky that seems to measure time by stars rather than clocks.
