Bayfield high school group visits Russia's Lake Baikal

This past summer a group of students and adults from Bayfield, Wisconsin, traveled to Siberia’s Lake Baikal to experience the culture and natural environment of Russia’s largest body of water. WTIP volunteer Joe Detrick spoke with Wisconsin High School Teacher of the Year Rick Erickson from his classroom in Bayfield about this big adventure with two big lakes.
