Tribal Area Description

Takotna is a Alaska Native Village in Alaska with ANVSA lands. The land base is relevant for broadband planning due to rural service coverage and middle-mile access constraints.

Website Summary: www.tananachiefs.org/about/communities/takotna

Takotna is located in Interior Alaska on the north bank of the Takotna River in a broad scenic river valley, 17 air miles west of Mc Grath in the Kilbuck-Kuskokwim Mountains. The Takotna River is generally ice-free from June through October. Takotna has been known as Berry Landing, Portage City, Takotna Station, and Tocotna. In 1921 the Alaska Road Commissio n improved the Takotna-Ophir road, and an airfield was constructed. Low waters at times precluded the arrival of steamboats, so the Takotna-Sterling Landing road was constructed to the Kuskokwim River in 1930. Takotna is a mixed population of non-Natives, Athabascans, and Eskimos. By 1912, the community had several stores that supplied miners. The village was founded at the farthest point on the river Berry’s small sternwheeler was able to reach.
