Amazing Lake

[UncleSteve]

Lake Baikal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Located in Siberia, 500 miles long, 1 mile deep.
If emptied it would take all the rivers in the world a year to fill it up.
It holds 1/5 of the worlds fresh water.
Purest water in the world.
Mt Everest could be buried in the silt and mud, in places it is 5miles thick.

Very interesting, saw it on the travel channel.

I saw a show where Bob Ballard was looking in some of those old euro lakes.
He said the water was so pure that bacteria who eat wood were not present and he was finding all kinds of neat stuff hundreds of yrs old.
