The Ulakhan-Chistay Range is the highest subrange of the Chersky Range system. It displays a clear Alpine relief and extends from NW to SE for about 250 kilometres (160 mi) south of the Moma Range. It is parallel to the latter and separated from it by a wide intermontane basin, where the Ulakhan-Chistay River and the Moma River flow from the southeast and join the Indigirka. From the southwest the range is bound by the Erikit River, a left tributary of the Moma, and the Nera Plateau, beyond which rises the Tas-Kystabyt, also known as (Sarychev Range).[4]

The highest point of the Ulakhan-Chistay Range is 3,003 metres (9,852 ft) high Mount Pobeda. It is the highest mountain of the Chersky Range and also the highest of Yakutia. In the range there are glaciers with a total area of about 100 square kilometres (39 sq mi).[2]
