Siberian Forest

Between the Lower Tunguska and the Chona, the Central Siberian Plateau is a country of forested ridges and river valleys. The Lower Tunguska flows north and west to the Yenisei, while the Chona belongs to the Vilyuy and Lena basin. Coniferous taiga covers much of the upland, and the rivers remain frozen through the long winter. Their spring floods bring great changes to the water level.
