Biologists say that long ago great
part of the water of the lake of OBJ
dorsk must have suddenly evaporated,
leaving huge salt crystals afloat on the
surface. These crystals in time caked
together Thus the water was entirely
covered over with them as though
frozen
The lake in 1878 dropped three feet.

Obi River, but the salt was so thick
upon it tht it retained its own level.

that has a roof of salt crystals thick
and strong enough to allow men and
horses to cross It on foot.-Phfladel-
