Here are some more beautiful Lake Baikal ice panoramas… You know. these pics really make me thinking about hiking on frozen Lake Baikal… What about you?

Scientists predict that Baikal will exist even when the face of our planet will change beyond recognition - and it's many thousands of years.

On the lake ice thickness varies from 70 to 113 centimeters, with an identified pattern: the more snow, the thinner ice.

One form of ice freezing – sokuyi. They appear on coastal rocks, jetties, rocks. They can reach 10 meters in height.

Ice breaks may be up to 10-30 kilometers when frost strengthens. The width of these cracks can reach several meters.

From a distance, the ice seems to be smooth as a mirror, but when you come closer you will see the meandering cracks, hummocky fields, and snow drifts
