Bol'shoy Balyk

The Bolshoy Balyk is a river of the middle Ob basin, flowing through the forests and wetlands south of the great river. About 243 kilometres long, it enters the Bolshaya Yuganskaya, one of the channels in the Ob river system. Its basin covers nearly six thousand square kilometres, and the Pyt-Yakh is among its tributaries. Long winters freeze the waterways of this low Siberian country, while spring brings their waters back to the floodplain.
