Bolshaya Synya

The Synya is a left tributary of the Usa, one of the main tributaries of the Pechora. It has its sources in the western slopes of the Subpolar Urals. The river heads in a roughly NNW direction as a mountain river in its upper reaches. In its middle and lower course its channel divides into branches as it flows within a wooded, swampy plain. In its last stretch there are many lakes in the plain to the west of the river. Finally the Bolshaya Synya meets the left bank of the Usa about from its mouth. Tributaries The main tributary of the Synya is the long Malaya Synya (Малая Сыня) from the right. The river is frozen between October and May. ==See also==
