Tatshenshini River

The Tatshenshini River (; Tlingit ''Tʼachanshahéeni'', Southern Tutchone ''Shäwshe Chù'') is a river in the southwestern Yukon and the northwestern corner of British Columbia, Canada. It originates in British Columbia, near Haines Highway. It flows north into Yukon, then it turns west and south before it returns into British Columbia, where it flows through the Tatshenshini-Alsek Provincial Wilderness Park. There it joins the Alsek River, which then flows in the Pacific Ocean in Alaska, United States. It is popular for wilderness rafting trips.
==History==
Although this river was used as a vital trade route by First Nations, in particular the coastal Tlingit people, the first Europeans to travel the present-day Tatshenshini River were Jack Dalton and Edward Glave in 1890, accompanied by two native guides. Prior to 1891, the present-day Tatshenshini River was considered to be the upper Alsek River.〔, at pp. 15, 18-19 (“All-segh'”; “Katch-kwae-wugh”; “Ta-tchan-seena”).〕 (At that time, the present-day upper Alsek River was considered to be the lower Kaskawulsh River.〔) In or about 1891, the present-day Tatshenshini River (pre-1891 upper Alsek River) was assigned the name ''Tatshenshini'' by the Canadian government, and the pre-1891 lower Kaskawulsh River became the present-day upper Alsek River.〔The Canadian government assigned the name ''Alsek'' to the present-day Alsek River in 1891. , at page 19 (Alsek River). It is presumed that the Canadian government assigned the name ''Tatshenshini'' to the present-day Tatshenshini River at the same time. At the very latest, the change had occurred by 1898.〕
About 1897, Jack Dalton established a trading post near the location where the present-day Tatshenini begins to flow westward. This trading post flourished during the Klondike Gold Rush. Today, the site of Dalton's trading post is a popular location for salmon fishermen, and it is the launch point for rafting trips on the Tatshenshini River. The Tatshenshini River was designated a Canadian Heritage River in 2004.
