so-called transsiberian highway is used all the year nevermind the season/weather. the
1 000 km gravel passage is snowy in winter, dusty in summer and muddy in fall/spring and under construction. but it's still a federal road which is permanently in use. don't think it's like the road to magadan from ewan&charly movie.
and start learning russian it'll will help a lot all along your route, including mongolia and ex-soviet stans. russian there is like english in europe - 8 from 10 speak it.
