* ThankYourPrey: The Native adults in Qyah stress the importance of showing gratitude directly to plants and animals that are harvested. Molly's grandpa and parents teach her that fish and hunted animals "give themselves" to them, and are to be thanked for the gift of their sacrifice.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: The community of Qyah is led by tribal chief Midge Elik and a council. Midge is very friendly with the village children, listens to them, and imparts her wisdom to them whenever they ask for it. She also allows them to learn and discover things on their own instead of handing them easy solutions to their problems. Case in point, in "Brand New Flag," she flat out refuses to pick a winner for Molly's flag contest when Molly says she can't decide. Instead, she helps Molly figure out what she's looking for in a flag, and assures her that those who don't win the contest won't be upset about it.

* ArtisticLicenseGeography: The writers cannot seem to decide where Qyah is. Or the Kantishna River, for that matter. Season 1 episodes establish that the river that flows past Qyah is the Kantishna, which is a real tributary of the Tanana River and part of the Yukon River basin. And since Qyah is in between the Kantishna and the view of Denali, this means Denali is, by necessity, south of Qyah, as the Kantishna meanders in a generally northeast direction out of Denali National Park. And yet every map of Qyah shown, except the one relative to the Yukon River, is oriented south-north, even online. Fish camp is shown in the series to be downstream of Qyah, but according to the map and the actual flow of the Kantishna, it should be upstream. The only time the Kantishna is shown flowing in the correct direction is in the special "Wise Raven and Old Crow," when the Mabrays follow the Kantishna to the Tanana River and downstream to the Yukon River. Denali is also implied to be north of town as late as season 4.

* SelfServingMemory: In "Molly of the Yukon," this trope is PlayedForLaughs. Cliff wants to show Molly the place where he caught his first ''dinjik'', but Nat say that's where ''he'' caught ''his'' first ''dinjik''. The two of them have a good laugh about it.
* SeriesContinuityError: In the first season, it's established that the nearest town to Qyah is Nenana, which is north of Denali National Park. The second season gives us maps of Qyah, showing that it's situated on the Kantishna River, which is indeed north of Denali National Park. Qyah is shown to be in between the Kantishna and Denali, meaning that it's on the south shore, and the river at that point flows west to east past Qyah (it meanders a lot). This contradicts season 1 episodes that showed the Kantishna flowing east to west. This error is not corrected for most of season 2, which still shows the Kantishna flowing the wrong way even after its actual direction has been established by maps.
