Toodoggone River

The Toodoggone River is a tributary of the Finlay River in the Northern Interior of British Columbia, Canada, flowing east into the upper reaches of the Finlay just south of the Fishing Lakes.[1] At the head of the Toodoggone is Metsantan Pass, which is at the divide with the Stikine River basin and also on the spine of the Continental Divide.

Name origin

The name is an English adaptation of the older, more aboriginal name Thudegane, which is an adaptation of the Sekani language term Tuhda Ughane, meaning "Two Brothers River" or "eagles nest".[1][2]

gollark: Limit copyright to 10 years or so, with an extension if you give the copyright office the "source code" to release publicly when it's up.
gollark: So the idea is that *you* pick a value for your patent, and anyone who is willing to put up that much money can buy it off you.
