Kwalhioqua

An Athapascan tribe which formerly lived on the upper course of Willopah river, western Washington.  Gibbs extends their habitat east into the upper Chehalis, but Boas does not believe they extended east of the Coast range.  They have been confounded by Gibbs and others with a Chinookan tribe on the lower course of the river called Willopah.  The place where they generally lived was called Nq!ula' was. The Kwalhioqua and Willopah have ceded their land to the United States.  In 1850 two males and several females survived.  Hale who estimated them at about 100, said that they built no permanent habitations, but wandered in the woods, subsisting on game, berries and roots, and were bolder, hardier and more savage than the river and coast tribes.

It was my mom's birthday yesterday, and she wanted to go geocaching for the day! It was a bit cold today with the rain and wind, but we managed to get 46 of our 56 cache goal. We had to get the last 10 today. We started caching just before the sun went down, and finished after night fall. We saw all sorts of wildlife out in this country area! At one point, a herd of about 50 deer crossed the road. Thankfully, we stopped in time and didn't hit any. We also saw some massive rabbits crossing the road that must have been some sort of jack rabbit. TFTC!

Before I have to go back to Switzerland, FWIA and Harvestmoon2 decided to get some caches around the Denver Airport area. Always a lot of fun on our trips!

Thanks to all the CO’s for placing the caches. Best regards, Izzifix

Ah yes, back in beautiful Colorado with Izzifix & Harvestmoon2 for family time and caching. A couple days left until I head back to Iowa and Izzifix goes back to Switzerland.

Thanks to all the CO’s for placing the caches we enjoyed hunting.
