McGrath is a small city in the U.S. state of Alaska, located along the Kuskokwim River in the interior of the state, about 350 kilometers from Anchorage. With a population of about 300, the city is known for its Native American culture and gold rush history, and is an important transportation and supply center for the remote surrounding villages. The climate of McGrath is subarctic, with long, bitterly cold winters and short, mild summers when the aurora borealis is common. The economy is based on hunting, fishing and tourism, attracting outdoor enthusiasts for dog sledding, fishing and wilderness exploration. Its name derives from early gold prospectors, and it still retains the unique character of an Alaskan frontier community.
