Revisiting the icy symphony that is Russia's Lake Baikal

To get great views of the lake, just board a Khivus hovercraft.

It is -20°C and the wind in Russia’s Siberia blows away all warmth. Lake Baikal is frozen, yet it remains clear and icy blue in winter.

I’m partial to the cold wind on this barren ice lake though... perhaps it’s the vodka. In fact, Lake Baikal looks like she could use some vodka herself!
