Yenisey River
The Ob and Yenisey river basins and their drainage networks.
The Yenisey River passes through a scenic gorge near the Yenisey Ridge just above the confluence of the Stony (Podkamennaya) Tunguska River. In this section, the river cuts through spurs of the ridge, creating rapids at Osinovo before narrowing to a width of 800 yards (730 metres) as it plunges through the gorge.1
