Lake Baikal: A biological treasure trove | SLICE

[@AndulairahOfEarth]

I remember waking up at 6.30am on the Trans Siberian (from Moscow) and looked out the window and saw the most beautiful icy lake, Baikal. The train snakes along the south end of the lake, right up against the edge! And then on the other side of the train, was the most gorgeous snow capped Tunkinskiy mountains. I told myself I would never ever forget this moment! Once in a lifetime.

[@tetelbierg]

I had the same experience, though the lake wasn't covered with ice, in October 1979 on my way from Europe to Japan by train and boat. It was wonderful. Unfortunately I didn't have a camera and have no photos to remind myself what it looked like. -- I don't think I will ever get to go there again, so it's once in a lifetime for me too.

[@ashokkumar-se5sl]

It would drive me nuts thinking about everything I miss when I'm not looking outside, or it's dark out. Though I'm sure there are a lot of long stretches of nothing, or very repedetive, dull terrain. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Being Canadian, though I was born and raised in Toronto, which is relatively mild all winter. because we had a cottage three hours north of the city, my father would often take us on long road trips in the winter in the summer. The far north in winter might not seem appealing to a lot of people, but there is a certain serene beauty that has no description. It’s just you, and nature, nothing else. The sound is the wind blowing across the frozen lakes, and that incredible sound the ice makes as you walk on it, is almost a mystical experience. I used to love going up there, just to re-center myself. Some of my most beautiful memories were at the cottage sitting by the campfire at night, in the dead of winter, not a soul in sight for a hundred miles or more. The only sound being the crackling of the fire, and that quiet hum of nothingness, then looking up and being completely Surrounded by a sky filled with millions of stars, and if it was a full moon, the moon light bouncing off the snow, making it glisten like diamonds, it was absolutely perfect moment in time. Living in the city can be pretty chaotic, especially Toronto, which is a pretty big city. Going up north, especially in the winter, has its own ability to heal your soul. Again it’s difficult to put into words, but it is beautiful in so many ways I can’t even describe.

[@ChronoSquare]

What I hate the most about winter is probably the lack of light. Not that the day is better than the night, not quite, but rather how often the little sunlight our northern hemisphere gets in winter is often obscured or marred by obstructive clouds. Great wintry nights especially with a radiant moon cannot be experienced when opaque wisps float through the field of view. If it's snowing it's not fun, if it's clear and calm it's tolerable lol
