Geography
The Arga-Tas is a subrange of the Chersky Range mountain system.[2] It extends from NNW to SSE for almost 100 kilometres (62 mi) at the southern end of the Moma Range and west of the Kolyma River valley. The Rassokha, a tributary of the Yasachnaya River, cuts across the range in its middle course.[3][4]
The highest point of the Arga-Tas is an ultra-prominent peak that is 2,400 metres (7,900 ft) high.[5]
