Hello from the Mountains! This is beautiful South Mountain.
Here are views from a huge grassland up in the mountains where nomadic people and horsemen live. 
Of course I went with friends! 
It was an amazing day and you could see several mountain ranges kilometers away.
It felt like you were on top of the world.

It was an amazing day and you could see several mountain ranges kilometers away.It felt like you were on top of the world.After taking a bus up to the grassland, we rode a horse cart up a near by canyon.
It was almost like Christmas with the freshly fallen snow and pine trees all around us.
The mountains were very majestic.
Others chose to ride their own horses up the canyon.
Here are some of the locals saddling up.
Little friendly chit chat with the horses with the locals wait on the tourists!
Here is your local 'cowboy'!
Up the canyon we went to see a waterfall.
Along the way we got to see some of the nomadic people's houses.
Most of the people who live and work in these mountains are Kazak. Kazak's and Mongols both have a history of being nomadic and live in the round shaped houses called yurts.
Whether your house is round or square or on the 20th floor some things don't change!
Imagine living surrounded by all this beauty!
The fall leaves were putting on a show as well.
