Winter Safari In Baikal By Alexander Evdokimov At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

The winter Baikal leaves ineffaceable impression. Hummocked fields attract photographers’ attention by
unusual conglomeration of sparkling ice. Coastal rocks are decorated with ice spills with a height of
many meters. The Baikal freezes lately; the lake is fully covered with ice at the end of January. Armlets
of the small sea begin freezing earlier, at the beginning of November. Annually on the ice are built
roads. Every year roads are built.

The most mysterious and magic holiday, which we like from our early childhood is the New Year. Meet this
holiday in Baikal. For example: You can visit a ski lodge. To those, who have time, we advice to come
here for skiing in the middle of a week: queue for the lift is less and cost for using is also much less.

Besides that one can make use of an instructor’s services in teaching driving in snowboards and skis for
all ages. The ski complex “The Mountain Sobolinaya” has 6 routes: two – wide (about 40 m), sports routes
of 1870 and 2100 m length, two – 5000-8000, the slopes, prepared specially for beginners. On December –
opening of the winter season, which lasts from December, 1 to April, 1. Tourists are suggested crossing
of the lake via snowboards. One can try to drive on dog’s harness. “Give me snow and dog’s harness, and
the rest you may keep for yourselves!” These are the words of Knud Rasmusen, carried out the greatest in
the world history travel by dogs.
