Native American Tribe series.


Yurok

The Yurok tribe, whose name means "downriver people," have lived near the Pacific Ocean coast of northern California and southern Oregon for as many as 10,000 years. The Yurok language, is Algonquin, the farthest west that the language has been found. The nomadic bands lived on hunting and fishing, and gathering nuts, roots, and berries. In the winter, they concentrated in villages, where they lived in rectangular houses with slanted cedar roofs. Social status was determined by wealth, and unlike other Native Americans, the practiced the owning and selling of land. After the gold rush of 1849, the Yurok lost most of their land; however, they now own a number of ranches in California, flourishing with hotels and gaming resorts. They are the largest Indian tribe in California, with nearly 5,000 enrolled members.

We were only an hour or two into an epic day of geocaching before we made this find. Cache is dry and in good condition.
