From Khovd the journey to Bayan Olgii is not long but does go high (two passes over 2600 metres) and therefore needs care as there is a lot of snow around.
Olgii is the only aimag of Mongolia which has a majority Kazach population.
It is interesting to note that despite the huge size of the country there are several points close to towns (Bayan Olgii, Ulaangom, Erdenet and Ulaanbaatar).

 Khovd River- Tsengel(Among Kazaks in Bayan Olgiy, end of the Mongolian leg) 9/10/04
From this valley it was a two day ride into Olgiy, the town which had forever seemed like a distant, almost impossible destination.
Olgiy was also the first big town that I would have to take the horses through since I needed to cross the bridge in the middle of town.
I liked the idea of selling the horses in a region with many herders, and not too close to the border where the culture is often corrupted and it might be hard to find a buyer.
