Tłegóhłi

Tłegóhłi lies on the Deh Cho, or Mackenzie River, in the homeland of the Sahtu Dene. Natural oil seeps were known to Dene people travelling along the river, and Alexander Mackenzie recorded them during his journey in the eighteenth century. The great river connected this place with the Bear River and its lake to the south, and with hunting and fishing grounds along the northern valley.
