Geography
The Toko-Stanovik is a subrange of the
Stanovoy Range located in the eastern part. The range runs in a roughly east/west direction for about at the northeastern end of Amur Oblast and the western limit of Khabarovsk Krai, bordering with Yakutia (Sakha) to the north. The highest point is a high
ultra-prominent peak.
[ Peaklist - Siberia - 26 Mountain Summits with Prominence of 1,500 meters or greater] There are two small subranges: the
Dzhugdyr Range, with the sources of the Argi, stretches southeastwards from its central part, and the
Atagsky Range, stretches southeastwards to the east, in the area of the sources of the Maya.

River Zeya has its sources in the southern slopes of the range. On the northern side originate several rivers of the Uchur basin, such as the Algama, Mulam and Tyrkan, as well as the sources of Bolshoye Toko. This lake, which gives its name to the range, is located at the feet of the northern slopes of the Toko-Stanovik in the Aldan Highlands.[ Elena I. Troeva, A. P. Isaev, M.M. Cherosov, N. S. Karpov eds. The Far North:: Plant Biodiversity and Ecology of Yakutia, p. 210]
