Lake Big Lake

Lake Baikal, in eastern Russian, is the deepest lake in the world at 1600 meters. This lake contains 20% of the world's fresh water. Scientists believe that in a few million years this lake will help create the 8th ocean and China will become a new continent.
Lake Baikal is also home to fresh water seals and a multipide species only found here.

The lake freezes over in the winter and makes for great ice fishing & dog sleding. Mid-summer the waters tempurature is 5 degrees celsius also know as will make your legs numb in about 30 seconds. We hiked up to various view points, went for a boat ride to view the water amazing visibility (up to 40 meters in certain areas).
