The depth of the reservoir - not more than three meters. The main feature of the lake - the water temperature is high (which can reach in some seasons to 60 ° C) and high alkalinity - this figure varies between pH 9 and pH 10.



During the rapid evaporation of water when the activity of cyanobacteria is activated, the lake begins to acquire a frightening blood-red hue. Admit it, it looks pretty scary. B>

Many believe that the whole thing into a powerful reflectance of this infernal lake. Like birds, crashing on the transparent glass houses, African Flyers cut into the surface of the reservoir that instantly transforms them into petrified mummy.
