Alii

Aly lies on the left side of the Bytantay valley in the mountainous heart of the Verkhoyansk country. The Bytantay drains the eastern slopes of the range and joins the Yana farther north. Forested valleys and high ridges mark this remote part of northern Yakutia, where long winters and brief summers govern the river. The Yana carries the waters of these mountains onward to the Laptev Sea.
