Because your site has helped me planning trips and made it therefore possible to see a clouded leopard, spectacled bears and snow leopards, I uploaded a trip report for the first time. Mongolia 2017 Report.

Wonderful trip report ! Thanks for sharing
Really awesome report!
Who would have thought, a decade ago, that snow leopard will be another species that you can find with confidence if visiting the right places…
Thanks for sharing 🙂
An excellent trip report; congratulations on your sightings!
One thing – looking at the picture of the polecat in your trip report it seems to look more like a marbled rather than a steppe polecat; it has the conspicuous white stripe encircling the entire face and sticking up white ears that characterise the marbled polecat.
I agree Stephen, it looks like a marbled to me too.
Hi, this is an awesome report, thanks for sharing. I hope to visit Mongolia soon.
When you mention you’ve seen a Clouded Leopard before,I guess you’re talking about Sunda Clouded Leopard right? I’m looking to find anyone who has seen an Indochinese Clouded Leopard.
Hi Arne & Edith,
Inspired by your Trip Report we are travelling to Mongolia to look for Snow Leopard etc, and
we are using Tumen and Oyunaa’s services.
When you stayed in the Ger, did you bring your own sleeping bags? We are visiting from September 22nd to October 6th, a bit later than your trip, so it may be a little colder.
We are taking a thermal scope (new for us) and are looking to keep the rest of our weight down as much as we can!
Any advice that you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Steve Firth & Catherine Griffiths
