Ukelayat Range

The Ukelayat Range rises above the southern side of the valley of the Ukelayat river. It stretches in a roughly east–west direction with its eastern end close to the Bering Sea, between Dezhnyov Bay and Anastasii Bay. To the south rises the Snegovoy Range and to the north, above the other bank of the Ukelayat river, the Pikas Range. The highest point is Ledyanaya, a high rocky peak topped by an ice cap, which is also the highest point of the Koryak Highlands. To the east, not far from the sea, rises high Mt Undyer (гора Ундер). ==Flora and fauna==

The mountains are covered with mountain tundra, bare rocky areas, dwarf forests and shrub birches. Willow thickets, with diamondleaf willow, feltleaf willow and Salix krylovii, may be found in some of the river valleys. The Ukelayat Range provides a habitat for the snow sheep. ==See also==
