Geography
editOmuk-Kyuyol lies north of the Arctic Circle, in the southwestern part of the Kolyma Lowland. It is located in a large area of lakes between the basin of the Indigirka to the west and the Alazeya to the east. The main outflowing river is the Omuk-Kyuyol-Seen (Омук-Кюёль-Сээн), a small tributary of the 129-kilometre-long (80 mi) Bulgunnakhtaakh-Seene of the Alazeya basin.[1][2][3]
