The Ross River Dena Council is a First Nation in the eastern Yukon Territory in Canada. Its main centre is in Ross River, Yukon at the junction of the Campbell Highway and the Canol Road, near the confluence of the Pelly River and the Ross River. The language originally spoken by the people of this First Nation was mainly Kaska, although a number of the First Nation's citizens are Slavey speakers. The First Nation, which has 483 registered members, is a member of the Kaska Tribal Council which is pursuing land claims in the Yukon and northern British Columbia.

The Ross River Dena Council Peoples of Ross River
The people of Tu Łidlini – which means “where the river meets and the people gather” – welcome you to this place we call home, where the Pelly and Ross rivers meet. Our people gathered here for thousands of years and we still do today. Both English river names hearken back to fur trade days when newcomers replaced some of our Dena names with English ones to honour far distant Hudson’s Bay Company men. We are returning to our Dena language as quickly as possible to ensure it survives with all its vibrancy for our children and all those yet to come.
As Kaska Dena or Denek’éh – Dena means people – we are part of the larger group of Kaska Nation living in southeast Yukon and northern B.C. We often designate groups by the landscape features in their areas. Though we have community-based governments in B.C and Yukon, we consider ourselves one Kaska Nation."
