People and landscape at Russia's frozen Lake Baikal

Chinese tree logger WU Di travels on a Siberian train, holding a child he met on the train, in winter along the shore at Russia's Lake Baikal. Crowned the "Jewel of Siberia", Baikal is the world's deepest lake, and the biggest lake by volume, holding 20% of the world's fresh water. In the winter, the lake 31,722 square meter surface is entirely frozen with ice averaging 2 meters thick.
