text: An explorer's work is never done. After lunch we headed south straight across the desert towards the Kun Lun Mountains. It was 42 miles from the road. We had to cross two riverbeds and bounced across some pretty rocky terrain. That is why they called our Toyotas off-road vehicles. Finally after a couple of hours we arrived at Yeyik —a commune surrounded by desert and mountains. There was nothing special about the place except its remoteness. Eight camels were waiting to help us follow Marco Polo in a manner that he no doubt used in this part of his travels. Those in our group who did not get a camel were entitled to a horse. We all saddled up and were soon crossing a wide river bed on our way to visit a family whose home was on the other side of this section of the desert.
