Iultin

Iultin is a mountain in the Ekiatap uplands of Chukotka. Its Russian name adapts the Chukchi Ivyltiŋ, commonly interpreted as “long feathers,” a name associated with pale quartz veins on the slopes. The mountain rises in a cold northern interior of ridges and river valleys, far from the Bering Sea coast. A settlement established much later took the mountain's name.
