Descending from the Alaskan ridge, the river is divided into several branches, which again join together when passing it through Primrose Ridge, again divided into territories where Teklanika flows through the Stempid-Trail valley, and together when passing through the Tekla ridge and in the lower reaches, the river again meanders , forming many old ladies .
