Rock Art in Mongolia. The site consist of a huge slab of glacier polished bedrock at the foot of Mt. Shiveet (still sacred to the local people) covered with countless petrogliefs of local wild animals, people, horse mounted hunters/warriors and even hunting dogs.

The coordinates are recovered from memory with some help from Google Earth. It is about one day driving from the nearest airport in Bayan Olgii over unpaved roads without any road signs, so please use a good local guide.

If you’re interested I can recommend you our guide, please contact me for her email.
