Tien Shan Mountains (2)

And this is the view looking south across Issyk Kul to the south shore and the mountains there. What a location!

Some Issyk Kul information:
2nd largest mountain lake in the world
2nd largest salt water lake in the world (not very salty, but 118 rivers flow into it and none out, so it collects the minerals)
7th deepest lake in the world
10th largest lake in the world by volume
24th largest lake in the world by surface area
