The fish camp is the summer home for Interior Athabascan Indians who practice a subsistence lifestyle. It is at the fish camp that they catch fish to feed their dogs and themselves throughout the winter. Fish camp is also where the family elders worked side by side with the younger generations, passing down their history and culture, preserving their heritage.

Experience a traditional Athabascan Indian fish camp. The fish are caught in a fishwheel, a which scoops the fish from the river, as it is turned by the current. Watch a demonstration by Dixie Alexander of how the fish are cut and prepared for human and dog consumption. Dixie will also be at the Old Chena Village giving Athabascan hide and beadwork demonstrations, another of the Interior Indians' most prized cultural skills.
