zoom not to the upper right corner per se but into the 2nd square to
the left of the upper right corner

but can anyone who reads russian identify the names given there of
the
features in the immediate neighborhood of the tripoint"

On the tripoint: Lou Sand Hilo (probably Low Sand Hilo - what is
Hilo? Does it mean Low Sand Hill??)
Near the tripoint: ur. Lopemukat. No idea what that is. The
abbreviation "ur." on maps stands for "urocisce" (carons on c, s, and
c), and is a place that stands out in the surrounding area, like a
wood in a plain, or a marsh, according to my dictionary.
