Geyser (Blue) Lake. Altai

Tell me right away, whom does silt remind you of in a lake? To me personally - a skull, although half of our group shouted - a monkey ... Well, I have a skull, apparently, such a deformation of the imagination)

The water in the lake does not freeze all year round. I will immediately answer the question: "Can I swim?" I will answer - FIG knows him) Everything around is swampy, there aren’t any normal descents into the water, and where to swim? The depth of the lake is 2 meters, the width is about 30. Like a small pool. But on the net, I did not find evidence of swimmers)

To get to the Geyser Lake, after you arrive at the village of Aktash, you need to move from the Mena base to the right, about 500-600 m along the path in the open area, where you will see a swamp through which you can cross to another shore along the logs, which are laid out randomly across the swamp for convenient crossing.

For the passage to the lake, the local "ranger" from the base will take 20 rubles from you. Obviously, the path to the lake is more or less ennobled. But damn it - not a single pointer! Neither at the road, nor at the beginning of the trail. You can’t do that ...)

The lake is "removable" from almost all sides, except the one with a view of the power transmission line. Such a bastard! Such a fantastic place and wires cut the local landscape ... The local authorities need to adopt the experience of Iceland, which put the pillars in the form of huge giants. So harmoniously fit into the landscape. But no one thinks about beauty ...

The skull-muzzle at the bottom moved, was transformed, due to the constant pulsation of blue silt. I repeat - this is a truly cosmic-bewitching sight!

To get to the lake from the camp site you need to go through a small piece of swamp. Well, how small - part of the road passes through a beautiful forest, in which it also squishes underfoot. Along the way, you will also be shown several lakes, not only blue, but brown, peat. Also a very beautiful sight.

For those who want to take away good cards, a couple of tips. First, come in the morning when the sun shines on the lake. Secondly, do not forget the polarik so you remove the glare and show the entire color palette.
