This report summarizes the results of research conducted in Central Hot Springs, Circle, Eagle, and Eagle Village, Alaska. Data were gathered in Central during the spring of 2017 and in the remaining communities in the spring of 2018. These communities were chosen for this study because of their proximity to the Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve. The principal questions addressed by the Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve Subsistence Research Project concerned the range of wild foods used and harvested for subsistence and harvest amounts of each wild food. Related questions addressed the role of wild foods in each study community’s economy, the role of cash in subsistence economies, the use of lands and waters for subsistence practices, how the use of Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve has changed over time, the evolving relationship between local residents and the National Park Service as it relates to subsistence use in the preserve, and the effects of competition with other users.
