On day 3 we traveled a long distance mainly along the scenic
Bol'shoy Chivirkuy river with its many alluvial deposits and
steep cliffs. We actually took a little break on Day 4 and
took a short side trip to see the Omul' run (A rare fish

On Day 5 we finally arrived at the Lake itself. A park boat
meet us and ferried us across to the Holy Nose Peninsula,
where we relaxed at a natural hot spring. On Day 6 we were
taken to the mainland where a car met us and drove us back
to Ust'-Barguzin.
