Native American Tribe series.

Yana

Having their own distinctive language, the Yana formerly occupied the territory from the Round Mountains near the Pit River in Shasta County, to Deer Creek in Tehama County, California. The west boundary was about 10 miles east of Sacramento River, both banks of which were held by the Wintun tribe, with whom the Yana were frequently at war. They lived by hunting wild game, fishing for salmon, and collecting fruit, acorns and roots. Unfortunately, for the Yana, when gold was discovered in the area during the California Gold Rush, prospectors, ranchers, and businessmen flocked to their territory. Because their food supply began to diminish, they suffered great losses and fought with the intruders. As a result, in 1865, the miners organized a large group and attacked the Yana camp, killing all but about 30 people. What was left of the tribe retreated into the mountain wilderness and by 1902, there were only about six of them remaining.

Memfis Mafia and I had plans to get near 1000 caches this weekend in South Dakota. Come Thursday when we were to pick up our rental car from Enterprise they said sorry we do not have a car for you. Even though we reserved one a month in advance. There was not another car in town to rent so we called off our trip.

Today we ran out to get enough caches to finish our Hidden Creatures. We ended up over 100 on the day and about 10% of out plan. In any case this was a cache we got today. Thanks for the hide.

Last cache of an interesting day out on the plains. Seemed like we were much farther from home than we actually were! Our U-turn coin visited, because we made several, both large and small. Thanks for contributing to our good day.
