Wailaki, also known as Eel River, is an extinct Athabaskan language once spoken by the people of the Round Valley Reservation of northern California, one of four languages belonging to the California Athabaskan cluster of the Pacific Coast Athabaskan languages. The Wailaki-speaking peoples were the Sinkyone, Wailaki, Nongatl, and Lassik of the Eel River confederation.
