River icebergs

I have been planning my trip to the sandy desert among the taiga and snow-capped mountains of Siberia for a long time. Not far from the desert there are several small rivers that feed the large Middle Sakukan River. In winter, small and large rivers are covered with a thick layer of ice. With the onset of spring, the ice becomes thinner from the water side and falls into the river.
