Baikal 2005 - GBT camp Ajaja-Frolicha

Approach to the Ayaya Bay (view to the Beach) We came to the Ayaya Bay by a Boat of the Frolikha Nature Reservate Administration. 5 Peoples as the vanguard, 7 peoples in the next day. The Ayaya means in the language of the old Ewenks "beautiful beautiful" and realy, she is beautiful. Unforgettable the view, the nature, the silence and the sunsets.
The Way to the beach camp from the Ayaya Bay was round about 150 meters, because of a lot of food (for 14 days), instruments and equipment we had to go this distance any times.
The beach camp was equipped by Andrej, Genadi, Regina, Matthias and Johannes. A summer kitchen and a picnic place with a roof was always there.
The bridge over a creek in a swamp: Oliver from Switzerland is testing the static of the bridge.
A bench from tree trunks: The guys on the picture (Helmut, Jegor, Johannes and Oliver) are using their own work to celebrate the picnic.
Because of 4 weeks dry weather this spring is almost desiccated. But we find it nice to drink from it.
Approach to the Lake Frolikha
On the left hand side (north east) to the drain of the lower Frolikha Creek. Here is a rustically log cabin, which will be used some times by the park rangers. To cross the Lower Frolikha is a hard job, even if there is low water in the creek.
On the right hand side (south east) to the camp lodge. A beach for bathing is also there.
