Tok

The Tok River flows through the southern Tanana country of interior Alaska, near the northern slopes of the Alaska Range. This region belongs to the ancestral homeland of Tanacross-speaking Athabascan peoples, including the Mansfield-Ketchumstuk and Healy Lake-Joseph Village bands. Their territory extended westward to the Goodpaster River and north into the Yukon uplands. Named rivers, camps and villages mark a landscape of long-established connections between the mountains and the Tanana valley.
