Ob-Irtysh Confluence
The massive junction where two of Russia's greatest rivers meet just north of Khanty-Mansiysk.
Ural Mountains
On clear days, the silhouette of the Northern and Central Urals is visible on the western horizon.
Frozen Marshlands
Intricate geological patterns of the Vasyugan Swamp system's northern edges.

Verkh-Isetskiy Pond
