The Muosuchan Range is one of the subranges of the Verkhoyansk Range system and is located in its southwestern section.[https://navershinaxmira.livejournal.com/15832.html Verkhoyansk Range] / Great Soviet Encyclopedia; in 35 vols. / Ch. ed. Yu. S. Osipov. 2004—2017. It stretches roughly from northwest to southeast between the Bygyn Range to the west and the Tagindzhin Range to the east, running in a roughly parallel direction to both ranges. The southeastern end is bound by the valleys of the Munni (a tributary of the (Belyanka) and the Buruolakh (a tributary of the (Lyapiske), beyond which the Munni Range stretches eastwards.{{cite web|url=https://maps.vlasenko.net/smtm1000/q-51_52.jpg|title=Q-51_52 Chart (in Russian)|access-date=28 August 2021}}

River Lyapiske cuts across the range in its northwestern section and the Dyanyshka flows beyond the northern end. The highest point of the Muosuchan range is an unnamed {{convert|1243|m|ft|adj=mid|-high}} peak. Lake Billyakh is located at the northwestern end of the range.
