Course
The Sobolokh-Mayan is a right tributary of the Lena. Its source is located in the northern sector of the Verkhoyansk Range, at an altitude of roughly 1,500 m (4,900 ft) on the western slope of the Orulgan Range, with its valley flanking the northern side of the Byrandia Range in its upper course. In its first section the Sobolokh-Mayan flows across mountainous terrain. After leaving the mountains it flows into the Central Yakutian Lowland, forming meanders in the flat permafrost floodplain, until it joins the right bank of the Lena 700 km (430 mi) from its mouth, near the mouth of the Khoruongka in the opposite bank.
Its longest tributary is the 254 km (158 mi) long Nyimingde.
