Ozero Bustakh

Bustakh is a large freshwater lake in the northern Yana–Indigirka Lowland. Formed by the thawing of ground ice, it receives the Arkhip-Yuryage and Bustakh-Diring-Yuryue rivers. Its western waters connect with Lake Tonkay-Kyuyol, source of the Suruktakh River, which flows north into the Laptev Sea. Snow and rain replenish this Arctic lake.
