History

Tanaina Indian name spelled "Tu-lu-shu-lit-na" by Lt. J. S. Herron, USA, in 1899.

Watershed

Heads on Beluga Mountain, flows South and North-West 45 miles (72 km) to Skwentna River, 56 miles (90 km) North-West of Tyonek, Alaska.

This river begins at Judd Lake. It is inaccessible by road. And, it has its own support group.

The Talacuhlitna is popular for fly-in rafting / fishing trips. There are special restrictions on fishing -- rainbow trout & steelhead are 'catch & release' only. And, only single-hook lures can be used.

More information is available from a log of a 1976 river resource study for the Alaska State Division of Lands.
