Ayon Island
Ayon Island is an island in the coast of Chukotka in the East Siberian Sea. The island itself consists mainly of low-lying tundra, and is primarily populated by the Chukchi people, who use the tundra as pasture for their reindeer herds. ==Geography== It is located on the western side of the Chaunskaya Bay, directly off the Nutel'gyrgym Peninsula, at the eastern end of the Kolyma Gulf. The island is 63 km long and 38 km wide. It is generally low and flat and there are many small lakes and swamps. Ayon Island is separated from the mainland by the Malyy Chaunskiy Strait, a shallow channel which is barely 2 km wide in its narrowest spot. The bay to the south and east is Chaunskaya Guba. Administratively and municipally,〔Law #46-OZ, Article 2〕 Ayon Island belongs to Chaunsky District, part of Chukotka Autonomous Okrug of the Russian Federation. There are two small settlements, Elvuney〔 (now abandoned)〔(Weather forecast for El'vuney )〕 and Ayon in the northwestern end of the island.
