Chetyrekh River
The Chetyrekh River is a river in Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia. Its source is in the Byrranga Mountains. It flows across tundra regions into the Pyasino Gulf of the Kara Sea, just north of the mouth of the Pyasina River.
The Chetyrekh River freezes up in late September—early October and stays under the ice until June. Formerly this river was known as Dolgiy Brod River, but its name was changed after the 1917 Russian Revolution.
