As of today, out of season, returns ~January. Earth Exhibit tracks the live conditions and flags it the moment it is on.
Each winter, persistent cold and clear ice on Lake Baikal sculpt caves, tunnels, arches, and columns along Olkhon Island's rocky shores.
Sunlight filtering through thick, bubble-free ice produces vivid blue tones and translucent formations that are accessible from the frozen lake surface or short walks from shore.
