Coal River (Canada)

The Coal River runs from southern Yukon, Canada, into northern British Columbia, Canada, where it flows into the Liard River at historic milepost 533 of the Alaska Highway (Highway 97).

When Canadian explorer-geologist Richard George McConnell visited the river in 1887, he noted deposits of low grade lignite that had been brought down by the river.

The "community" of Coal River has a winter population of 2, and in the summer swells to 5 or 6 when the lodge is open.
