a mountain range of the Southern Altai, in Vostochnyi Kazakhstan Oblast, Kazakh SSR. The Sarymsakty Range is approximately 60 km long and rises to an elevation of 3,373 m at Mount Burkitaul. It is composed of effusive rocks, tuffs, argillaceous schists, sandstones, and granites. Glaciers occupy an area of 1 sq km.
