Ust-Chulasa

Ust-Chulasa takes its name from the mouth of the Chulas, where that river joins the Vashka in the northern forest. The Vashka flows on to the Mezen, connecting this confluence with the White Sea. Komi communities have long lived along the Vashka and Mezen, using the rivers as routes through a wooded country of small settlements, tributaries and long winters.
