I've noticed that most, if not all, the outfitters in Mongolia rafting
the rivers for Taiman fishing do it in September. *It seems that the
water is at a better level, cooler, and clearer. *

Any thoughts on this?

BTW, Boston to UlanBasomethingorother takes about 30 hours and
$4000.oo.

I use www.zuji.com, and just found the following: (ICN = Seoul, ULN =
Ulaanbaatar)

United; June 17 BOS-ICN (0630 dep- 1845 June 18 arr)
KAL: June 18 ICN-ULN (1950 dep- 2250 arr)

KAL: June 30 ULN-ICN (0020 dep- 0420 arr)
Singapore Airlines: June 30 (1750 dep- 0656 Jult 1 arr)

The price (taxes and surcharges and Siji fee) is $2526.
I can't help with the travel time, though. :-)
