Originally A\u0142s\u00eakh referred to the river running past Sh\u00e4wshe (Dalton Post) to the Pacific. The upper part of the original A\u0142s\u00eakh is called Sh\u00e4wshe Ch\u00f9 in Southern Tutchone and Tatshenshini in English. On maps the Alsek River now runs from a little south of Dakw\u00e4k\u1eb1da (Haines Junction), to the Pacific.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">People lived and traveled along the Alsek until the mid 1800\u2019s. At that time, Na\u0142udi (Lowell Glacier) blocked the river for several years, creating a huge lake that even covered the area where Dakw\u00e4k\u1eb1da (Haines Junction) is now located.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Alsek Valley and Dezadeash River","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":511,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
