Polar Urals

In the middle of last century in the northern Urals flew the first swallow - Expedition Hoffman. She went on the present territory of the district only for adult male Voikar and passes through the Urals, but the material collected by it in many ways changed the view of the eastern slopes of the Polar Urals. A particularly important result of research Hoffman was surveying and measuring the height of a number of corner vertices. Then the area was again a long forgotten and began attending individual travelers only at the beginning of XX century. Systematic and comprehensive study of the left bank of the adult male district began in 1925, here was sent an expedition under the leadership of BN Gorodkova. She has worked in the area between the Ob and the Polar Urals and completed a large program of geological, botanical and geodetic studies. In recent years the study region considerably intensified. Geologists working HA1 Son and Voikar, drilled wells in the hope to get to the oil Kunovat. Energy will be erected near the power station on the Ob Salekhard.
