Viihtaii

Viihtaii lies on the Chandalar River north of the Yukon Flats. The surrounding mountains and waterways are part of the homeland of the Neets’aii Gwich’in, the Chandalar River people. Families travelled through this country in search of fish and game, spending the coldest months in sheltered places and moving to other seasonal camps during the year. The Chandalar flows south towards the Yukon, connecting mountain valleys with the broad lowlands.
