Description: The Kuskokwim River serves as the major carrier for supply barges, skiffs, and float planes from Aniak and Bethel. A state-owned gravel airstrip is located one mile north of the village and has scheduled air service. In the winter, ski planes land on the frozen river, and vehicles are sometimes driven on the ice road to neighboring communities.
