![]() National Park Service, Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park, KLGO 55856. Originally the hilkoot/Chilkat Łingít managed the Chilkoot Trail which runs from the old townsite of Dyea, Alaska to Bennett, British Columbia. Today this trail is jointly managed by the Klondike Gold Rush International Historical Park in the United States and Parks Canada in the Yukon. The Carcross Tagish First Nations are interior Athabaskan people who live on the Canadian side of the trail. Because of the trail Tagish and Łingít have intermingled for centuries.
