The Coleen River (/koʊˈliːn/ koh-LEEN) is a 186-mile (299 km) tributary of the Porcupine River in the northeastern part of the U.S. state of Alaska. It begins in the Davidson Mountains in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and flows generally south-southeast into the larger river east of Coleen Mountain.[3] Its name comes from the French coline, which means hill.
