It is located in central Lake and Peninsula Borough. ==Names== According to the National Park Service, in the local language the word ''Alagnak'' means "making mistakes".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nps.gov/alag/planyourvisit/index.htm )〕 The river course is dynamic, changing often and splitting into new branches. For this reason, it is known locally as the "Branch River", where boaters may mistake one branch for another.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nps.gov/alag/planyourvisit/index.htm )〕 On the other hand, ''Native American Placenames of the United States'' says that the river's name may come from the Yupik word ''alagnaq'', a kind of red berry. The United States Geological Survey says something similar, citing Richard H. Geoghegan, a philologist, who said the native word referred to a wild raspberry.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alagnak River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
