The lake is a good place for łù shäw (broad whitefish). It is on the trail between Äshèyi and Chu Yäna Mǟn (Hutshi). Southern Tutchone from both places would come here to fish. Sometimes they would meet and visit.
This is a good moose, caribou and sheep hunting area. In the summer, a non-native big game hunting outfitter is based here. The company has a long-term lease from the Territory dating back to before the lands claim process.
