History
According to Elliott (1881, p.173), Goverooskie is Russian for the gulls, "Larus brevirostris, and L. tridactylus." Putnam (1903, p.1014) lists "Gavarushka" as Russian for the red-legged gull; the lake is so called from the large number of gulls frequenting it. Putnam (p.1015) lists the Aleut name as "Korium-anyi," also referring to the gulls.
