Aliihardaax

Alysardakh lies in the forested country of the Lena plateau, beside the Peledui River. A tributary of the same name joins the Peledui near the settlement, and the larger river continues to the Lena. The Peledui drains an extensive basin of taiga and tributary valleys before entering the great northward-flowing river. Snow and ice cover this part of Siberia through a long winter, followed by a short season of open water.
