Lake Clark Details
At 42 miles long and 5 miles wide, Lake Clark National Park & Preserve's namesake lake was named for John W. Clark, the first non Native American to see the lake: he visited on an expedition in 1891. The Dena'ina Athabascan name for the lake is Qizjeh Vena, which means "place where people gather." The lake drains through Six Mile Lake and the Newhalen River, into Iliamna Lake.
