The Kolyma Mountains or Kolyma Upland (Russian: Колымское нагорье, romanized: Kolymskoye Nagorye), is a system of mountain ranges in northeastern Siberia, lying mostly within the Magadan Oblast, along the shores of the Sea of Okhotsk in the Kolyma region.[1] It constitutes the watershed between the basins of Kolyma River and of the Sea of Okhotsk / Pacific Ocean.[2]
The range's highest point is Mount Nevskaya (гора Невская) in the Omsukchan Range at 1,828 meters (5,997 ft).[3]
