History of Huslia
By George “Butch” Yaska Sr., Latrill Wholecheese, Aaron Weter, Maverick Vent, David Sam, and Doreen David
Butch tells the story of where the people of Huslia first resided. The village used to be 10 miles up by the Big Lakes. Lots of people liked to travel there for potlatches. The village then moved by the river at the old town. There were floods at Old Town, and they couldn’t get a school so the village decided to move to where Huslia currently is.
