Chickaloon sits in a beautiful valley among the Talkeetna Mountains and is by far the most fun village name to say. Founded by Chief Chiklu and is still called the native name Nay'dini'aa Na' in the village constitution. Chickaloon is home to the Chickaloon Retreat Center which looks like a nice place to book your next church retreat. It's also near Kings Ranch where Kindom Air Corp is training the next generation of missionary pilots.
Chignik is way out there where the Aleutian Chain begins and is home to a Trident Seafood facility, one of the largest seafood companies in the world. Benny Benson, the designer of the Alaska State flag at just 14 years old was born in Chignik. It's also the birthplace of "The Singing Fisherman" known for his country style gospel music.
