This ‘little arm’ of Kluane Lake lies in a mountainous valley which is called The Kala Dagür. Long ago many people lived along the arm but they moved south towards Burwash Landing when the Tlingit traders started coming. The Kluane Lake people went along this arm to its upper end from where they would travel to Chegǟr Mǟn (Tincup Lake) and Ushè Dät’äla (Redtail Lake) for fishing and hunting. Little Arm is the place mentioned in the old song sung by Jessie Joe which is played at the opening of Dákeyi. Jimmy Johnson made this song about someone travelling away by boat down Little Arm.

There was a fishing site on Brooks Creek near the confluence of Bridge Creek. In the 1940’s archaeologists found the remains of a fish trap here. The wings or fence were still in the creek and the remains of the cone were on the banks. They learned that salmon were sometimes caught but that other species were more plentiful.
