Khatgal est un village qui se trouve sur la pointe sud du lac de Khovsgol, considéré comme le petit frère du Baikal relié à celui-ci par une rivière. C’est l’un des plus vieux lacs au monde, âgé de plusieurs millions d’années, avec une eau tellement pure qu’elle est potable sans traitement
.
La hauteur de l’eau du lac a beaucoup varié avec notamment de grosses crues qui ont inondé tous les arbres se trouvant dans les 20m autour du lac. Aujourd’hui on aperçoit donc de nombreuses souches d’arbres de bois flotté en bordure de lac
.
Étant en ville pour le Nadaam on a testé l’expérience en yourte, dite ger en mongol, avec son isolation thermique en feutre de laine de yak et son poêle à chauffer au centre .

Khatgal is a small village just on the south bank of the Khovsgol lake, considered as the little brother of the Baikal lake and directly linked to him with rivers. It’s one of the oldest lakes in the world, dating back from million years, with a water so pure that you can drink it without any treatment
.
The level of the water has changed after strong floods that flooded all the trees 20m around the lake under the water. Today we still see the floated tree stumps just near the water .
Enjoying few days in town for Nadaam, we tested some nights in yurts, called « gers » in mongol, with its yak felted wool insulation and its heating stove in the center .

What does a medal mean to you?

For me it is a reminder of the journey. The training, the saving $$$ to get there, the adventure. The highs and lows of the event itself. But most of all it reminds me of the people I experienced the journey with - fellow competitors, staff and volunteers. This one is #Mongol100 .
