Geocache Description:

The cache is hidden on the coast of the largest lake in Lithuania.



Lake Druksiai, or Drysviaty in Belarusian is a lake located partly in the northeastern part of Lithuania and partly in the Vitebsk Voblast, in Belarus.
The lake water was used to cool the reactors of the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant. Now there is a project to build new Visaginas Nuclear Power Plant near the old one.
The basin of the lake was formed during the movement of the glaciers by two perpendicular channels, which expanded north to south and west to east. The maximum depth of the first channel is 29 m, and the second one - 33.3 m. The greatest depths are located near the middle of the lake. The shallowest part is on the south ridge of the lake, its depth is approximately between 3 and 7 meters. Eleven small rivers flow into the lake, and one dammed river flows out. There are ten islands on the lake.
New resting-place was opened near the lake. More info about it you can find here
