Buur

The Bur, also known as the Pur, is a tributary of the Olenyok in the far north of Yakutia. It flows through a tundra region before joining the larger river, whose waters continue to the Laptev Sea. The Bur has tributaries of its own, including the Ary-Ongorbut and Kyra-Khos-Tyoryuttyakh. The long Arctic winter binds its basin with ice, leaving a short season of open water.
