Ayan Maia Upplands

East of the Maya River, high plateaus and deeply cut valleys rise toward the Dzhugdzhur Mountains and the Sea of Okhotsk. This is the eastern edge of the Yudoma–Maya highlands, a cold and remote landscape whose rivers drain toward both the coast and the interior. Larch and pine grow along the valleys, while the heights form a rugged divide between the waterways on either side.
