Williston
The upper Peace country is a land of long valleys between mountain ranges. Here the Finlay flows south and the Parsnip north until they meet to form the Peace River, which cuts east through the Rockies. These waterways lay within the homeland of the Sekani, or Tse’khene, who hunted and fished throughout the region. Their seasonal journeys connected the mountain valleys with lands farther east and west.
