  • Vaccinium Processing in the Washington Cascades
    Joumul of Elhoobiology 22(1): 35--60 Summer 2002 VACCINIUM PROCESSING IN THE WASHINGTON CASCADES CHERYL A 1viACK and RICHARD H. McCLURE Heritage Program, Gifford Pirwhot National Forest, 2455 HighlL¥1lf 141, Dou! Lake, WA 98650 ABSTRACT,~Among Ihe native peoples of south-central Washington, berries of the genus Vaccil1ium hold a signHicant place among traditional foods. In the past, berries were collected in quantity at higher elevations in the central Cascade Mmmtains and processed for storage. Berries were dried along a shallow trench using indirect heat from d smoldering log. To date, archaeological investigations in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest have resulted in lhe identil1cation of 274 Vatcin;um drying features at 38 sites along the crest of the Cascades. Analyses have included archaeobotanical sampling,. radiocarbon dating. and identification of related features, incorporating ethnohistonc and ethnographic studies, Archae­ ological excavations have been conducted at one of the sites. Recent invesHgations indicate a correlation behveen high feature densities and specific plant commu­ nities in the mountain heml()(~k zone. The majority of the sites date from the historic period, but evidence 01 prehistoflc use is also indicated, Key words: berries, Vaccinium~ Cascade rv1ountains, ethnornstory, ardtaeubotanical record.

  • The Wild Cascades
    THE WILD CASCADES Fall, 1984 2 The Wild Cascades PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE ONCE THE LINES ARE DRAWN, THE BATTLE IS NOT OVER The North Cascades Conservation Council has developed a reputation for consistent, hard-hitting, responsible action to protect wildland resources in the Washington Cascades. It is perhaps best known for leading the fight to preserve and protect the North Cascades in the North Cascades National Park, the Pasayten and Glacier Peak Wilderness Areas, and the Ross Lake and Lake Chelan National Recreation Areas. Despite the recent passage of the Washington Wilderness Act, many areas which deserve and require wilderness designation remain unprotected. One of the goals of the N3C must be to assure protection for these areas. In this issue of the Wild Cascades we have analyzed the Washington Wilderness Act to see what we won and what still hangs in the balance (page ). The N3C will continue to fight to establish new wilderness areas, but there is also a new challenge. Our expertise is increasingly being sought by government agencies to assist in developing appropriate management plans and to support them against attempts to undermine such plans. The invitation to participate more fully in management activities will require considerable effort, but it represents a challenge and an opportunity that cannot be ignored. If we are to meet this challenge we will need members who are either knowledgable or willing to learn about an issue and to guide the Board in its actions. The Spring issue of the Wild Cascades carried a center section with two requests: 1) volunteers to assist and guide the organization on various issues; and 2) payment of dues.
