Today we bought four horses from our contact, E. E. will ride with us for the adventure. He has been to Darkhad region by jeep, but not by horse. Like us, he wants the adenture, so we bought him a horse.
We rode out of Moron at 2:30. My riding partner M. had some trouble with his horse. When he tried to mount her, a couple times she started off. This could be a problem.
We stopped by a well to water the horses at about 4:30 and made camp at about 6 pm at another watering spot about 15 km. from Moron. That was about three hours riding.
We cooked rice with dried beef for dinner, pitched our tent, and staked the horses for the night. We had in mind to do horse watch of three hours each because we have heard too many stories about horse thieves. But E., who took the first watch, promptly fell asleep. But in the morning the four horses were still staked in place.
