Kenai River
The Kenai River called ''Kahtnu'' in the Dena'ina language, is a river in the Kenai Peninsula of south central Alaska. It runs westward from Kenai Lake in the Kenai Mountains, through the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge and Skilak Lake to its outlet into the Cook Inlet of the Pacific Ocean near Kenai and Soldotna, Alaska. ==Geography== The Kenai River () is a meltwater river that drains the central Kenai Peninsula region. Its source is the Kenai Lake. Near Cooper Landing, the lake narrows to form the river. About from the lake, the river passes through Kenai Canyon for about of fast-flowing whitewater rapids. The Russian River empties into the Kenai several miles west of Cooper Landing. from Kenai Lake, the river enters Skilak Lake. The Kenai Lake to Skilak section is commonly referred to as the "Upper River". The portion from Skilak Lake downstream to the Sterling Highway bridge near Soldotna is known as "Mid-River". The final from the bridge to the mouth at Cook Inlet is known as the "Lower River", where the flow is much gentler. The final are greatly influenced by changing tides.〔
