However down on the south, the ground is covered with vast rooling plains, which are treeless tundra. on the west, there is low lying with small bluffs and coneshaped hills, which are called pingos. On the east, it is rough and ragged because there are many gravels on the ground.
                    On the lower lying ground, it has muskeg, wet, spongy bog by the layers of decaying vegetations. However, on the higher grounds, there are many stones freezed and thawed from the climate. The winter is ong, cold, and has no day-light, but has a bunch of beautiful aurora borealis. The summer however is very short and cool. And ther is almost no darkness.
