The study was designed to collect information about the harvest and use of wild fish, game, and plant resources, demography, and aspects of the local cash economy such as employment and income. These communities were classified “non-rural” by the Federal Subsistence Board in 1990, which periodically reviews its classifications.

Upper Skilak Boat Launch and Skilak Lake Road will also be opened at the same time to allow for take out and launch of boats. Recent rain has dampened firefighting activity and has allowed crews to remove downed trees from roads within the Skilak Wildlife Recreation Area. The only area remaining closed on the Kenai River is the channel on the south side of the river from approximately River Mile 69.5 to River Mile 71.5, to support firefighting activity. No campgrounds or trails within or adjacent to the Skilak Wildlife Recreation Area are now open. Boaters may use the parking areas at the Upper and Lower Skilak boat ramps and Jims Landing Boat Ramp. Restrooms at these locations are open as well. Although fire danger has decreased over much of the Kenai Peninsula, residents and visitors should remain aware and prepared.

In recent years, an average of 275,000 angler- days of participation have been recorded. An angler-day is one person fi shing for any part of a day. The Kenai is a glacial stream draining the central Ke- nai Peninsula. Kenai Lake narrows into Kenai River near the community of Cooper Landing. It meanders through slack water for approximately 6 miles, crossing gravel riffl es before narrowing again into a stream of greater, yet still gentle, gradient. This continues for about another 6 miles before tumbling through the “Kenai Canyon”: two miles of fast river with whitewater enough to excite even experienced fl oaters and kayakers. Kenai Canyon is not recommended for the novice. Below the Canyon, the river continues in a more gentle fashion for about 3 more miles to Skilak Lake.
