Lake Clark was named for John W. Clark, chief of the Nushagak trading post and the first American non-Native to see the lake, when an expedition financed by a weekly magazine reached it in February 1891.[1] The Dena'ina Athabascan name is Qizjeh Vena which means "place where people gather lake".[2] The lake is within Lake Clark National Park and Preserve.
