Bakii

The Baky flows from a lake in the northern uplands and joins the Irgichen to form the Uyandina. It first runs southeast before turning southwest toward the confluence. The waters of the Uyandina continue across northeastern Yakutia to the Indigirka and the East Siberian Sea. Lakes and low hills surround the headwaters, where the long Arctic winter freezes the river and covers the valleys in snow.
