What travel writer could resist Mongolia? Toting a collapsible kayak through a little-traveled land, Backpacker Magazine's Berne Broudy recently toured the Zavkhan province to paddle lakes she says "melt into the endlessly brilliant blue sky that Mongolians consider their national treasure and identity." Finding the paddling destinations was half the adventure. Broudy says her group stopped at yurts in the bush to drink tea and eat fried bread with the occupants before inquiring about area lakes.
