History

Eskimo village, now abandoned, reported in 1879 by US@C&GS as "Kwikpakamiut," meaning "Kwikpak people." "Kwikpak" is the Eskimo name for one of the major distributary channels of the Yukon River; it is a name often applied to the Yukon itself. This may be the same as the village of Kwikpuk reported in 1899 by US@C&GS at about 624000N1635500W.
