Descending the verdant slopes of Hasgat Khairkhan Uul, we set our sights on the next ultra-prominent peak, Bumbag Khairkhan Uul, preparing for a two-day trek. Along the way, the allure of lower peaks was too tempting to resist, and naturally, we discovered some. First up was “Peak 1633m Jeragalan”, where Rob confirmed a modest 50m prominence after a short and pleasant hike that offered delightful views—a welcome interlude in our lengthy drive. Later today, we plan to explore two additional features, “Peak 1774m Taishir” and “Peak 1727m Taishir“.
