Ross River

Tu Łidlini, “where the river meets and the people gather,” lies at the junction of the Ross and Pelly rivers. For the Kaska Dena it was a meeting place and a crossroads for travellers from the upper Liard and the mountains to the east. Kaska tradition remembers the confluence as a place of peace where people could seek refuge from conflicts elsewhere. Seasonal journeys also brought families to the Pelly for its salmon runs.
