Yeniseyskiy Ridge in the west to the foothills of the
Verkhoyanskiy Range in the east; it borders in the north on the
Severo=Sibirskaya nizmennost' (which has an average height. of,
50 >u to 70 m above sea level) approximately along a line from the-
Yenisey River at the Arctic Circle to the lowlands of the Olenek
River; in the southeast the plateau approaches the Aldan River

300 m; the southern fringe of the plateau in the 0lekma ,River area'
runs approximately along the 59? of the northern latitv.~e

The,`height of the watershed between the Lena and the'Vilyuy

toward the Lena River and east of it, between the Lena and the
Aldan Rivers, ~it is 200 m to X00 m. (6, vo I, p. 115)
