Myndagai

Myndagai lies in the country east of the Lena, near the lower Amga basin. The Amga flows north through eastern Siberia to join the Aldan, passing between forests and areas of meadow. In this severe continental climate, the valley country offered Sakha communities places for livestock, while the river connected the region with the larger Lena water system. The short summer contrasts sharply with the long, deeply frozen winter.
