Everything about Ket River totally explained

Ket River, also known in its upper reaches as the Big Ket River is a river in the Krasnoyarsk Krai and Tomsk Oblast in Russia, a right tributary of the Ob River. The length of the Ket River is 1,621 km. The area of its basin is 94,200 sq km. It freezes up in late October - early November and stays under the ice until late April - early May. Its main tributaries are the Sochur, Orlovka, Lisitsa, Little Ket, Mendel, Yelovaya, and Chachamga.
   In the late 19th century, the Ket-Kas Canal was built to connect the Ketwith the Greater Kas River that flows into the Yenisei. This project would make the Ket a part of the waterway connecting the Ob River basin with the Yenisei. Unfortunately, being shallow, long, inconveniently located, and frozen the greater part of the year, the canal wasn't competitive with the Trans-Siberian Railway, and was abandoned around 1921.
