About :
The road from Tobolsk to Yeniseisk goes through the huge West Siberian plain, here is the largest raised Vasyugan swamp in the world, the greatest river Ob flows with thousands of channels and a colossal floodplain, which in the spring turns into a huge reservoir with millions of cubic kilometers of water, and all this is covered with endless taiga, .. All together makes this territory absolutely unsuitable for movement, swamps, fords, windfalls do not give horses a chance. And that is why the border of the great nomadic empire runs along the southern border of these forests, in the taiga itself live mysterious forest tribes that have adapted to life in these difficult conditions. - Selkups, inhabitants of rivers and lakes, and reindeer nomads, the Tungus. However, to the south in the zone of the Siberian steppes, nomads rule, supported by the Chingizids of Bukhara and the Oirats of the Mongolian plains. That is why Russian pioneers, despite the traditional culture of sedentary farmers, cross the Stone and set off to the east on long wooden boats, using rivers as roads, connecting the upper reaches of rivers of different basins by portage. To live in these unusual conditions, they have to adapt to hunting, fishing, life in the taiga, adopting the experience of local peoples, this rapid transition through thousands of kilometers of impassable taiga becomes on a par with the great geographical discoveries; Africa, America and Southeast Asia, the names of the pioneers are not as famous as Magellan or Columbus, but ultimately we understand that Russian people managed to find the key to the taiga of Siberia, which the ancient Turks, Tamerlane or the troops of Alexander the Great could not find. A little later, having built cities in the taiga, learned to sow grain and raise horses in the forest zone, having gained the necessary strength, our ancestors took a step to the south, moving the borders of the state to the borders of China, the Sayan and Altai Mountains. But that's another story, and now we are heading to the main road of this path - the small taiga river Ket, connecting the vast expanses of two great Siberian rivers Ob and Yenisei.
