This includes the Sash Dine’ EcoRetreat resort on the Navajo Reservation. Since the inception of the project, we have endeavored to be respectful of the many positions of the local residents. Due to this principal and some very recent and influential discussions, we have decided to remove all elements that either celebrate or borrow from the cultures of Native America, including • Tipis • Hogans • The Native People Interpretive Center • The Event Plaza will not be programmed with any specific focus on Native American culture. • While partnerships with local people will be sought out, they will not be focused on the Native American experience. The removed items may be replaced by different but similarly scaled and non-culturally- referential glamping units, or with additional types of units already planned for the development (safari tents, cabins, etc.). Sincerely, John D. Gunderman John D. Gunderman T (317) 605-1070 E [email protected] Immediate Release: May 10, 2021 Navajo Nation Human Rights Commission calls to postpone vote on Public Hearing adoption of Ordinance 2021-05, changing the zoning of Two Guns interchange. St. Michaels, Navajo Nation (ARIZ) – During the May 7th Commission meeting, the Navajo Nation Human Rights Commission (“Commission”) was informed of a proposed Two Guns Resort to be built at Two Guns interchange on I-40 near the Twin Arrows Casino. The Commission is proposing to Coconino County Board of Supervisors to postpone their vote until all concerns are address by Two Guns Resort. The concerns consist of cultural property appropriation, and the disturbance of archeological sites. It is important the appropriate indigenous human rights standards be employed in this matter. The human rights standard is free, prior and informed consent. This process requires transparency. With multiple indigenous nations, expressing their apprehension of the development, it would be in the best interest to postpone until all concerns are address. Coconino County Board of supervisors will host an online public hearing Wednesday, May 12, 2021 at 5:00pm. The public hearing is to approve or disapprove to expand the General zone from 10 acers to a Resort Commercial Zone that will be 246.7 acers. For more information of the Zoom public hearing, please visit Coconino county BOS video stream link: https://www.coconino.az.gov/1589/BOS-Video-Stream. ### From: Alicia M.

Statement of Historic Contexts NOTE: The terms “tipi,” “tepee,” and “teepee” are used interchangeably in both historical and popular documents. For consistency, the term “tipi” will be used in this document unless an alternate spelling is quoted directly. NOTE: The interstate tipis are not true tipis. They are concrete structures that imitate lodgepoles, or the lodgepoles framing the tipi structure. The lodgepoles interlock in a similar spiral fashion, as would a real tipi. An exact imitation of tipis would also have included smoke flap poles and covering. However, they have historically been referred to as tipis. This document will continue that tradition.

Morgan and the 21st Navajo Nation Council presented representatives from the Havasupai Tribe with gifts of appreciation because the Havasupai Tribe, other tribes and the Navajo Nation formed a united tribal front to oppose snowmaking on Dook’o’slííd. Thomas Walker Jr. (Birdsprings/Leupp/Tolani Lake), who advocated for the Navajo Nation, presented gifts to Edmund Tilousi, Vice Chair of the Havasupai Tribe, Carletta Tilousi, councilwoman for the Havasupai Tribe and Hertha Woody, Sierra Club volunteer, of Shiprock, N.M. Left to right: Eric Descheenie, Legislative Staff Assistant; Thomas Walker, Council Delegate (Birdsprings/Leupp/Tolani Lake); Carletta Tilousi, Havasupai Tribe Councilwoman: Hertha Woody, Sierra Club Volunteer. Absent is Edmund Tilousi, Havasupai Tribe Vice Chair. (Photo by Speaker Morgan and the 21st Navajo Nation Laphillda Tso) Council are grateful for the relationship that has been built with the Havasupai Tribe. The Havasupai’s involvement in helping form a united tribal front, along with the Navajo Nation, protects the sanctity of the San Francisco Peaks -- Dook’o’oslííd, which ultimately made a significant difference in the Flagstaff City Council’s decision to disapprove the substitute water sale agreement to make artificial snow at the Arizona Snowbowl.

  • Havasupai Nation Field Trip May 16 – 20, 2012 by Melissa Armstrong
    Havasupai Nation Field Trip May 16 – 20, 2012 By Melissa Armstrong The ESA SEEDS program had a field trip to Flagstaff, AZ the Havasupai Nation in Western Grand Canyon from May 16 – 20, 2012 as part of the Western Sustainable Communities project with funding from the David and Lucille Packard Foundation. The focus of the field trip was on water sustainability of the Colorado River Basin from a cultural and ecological perspective. The idea for this field trip arose during the Western Regional Leadership Meeting held in Flagstaff in April 2011 as a way to ground our meeting discussions in one of the most iconic places of the Colorado Plateau – the Grand Canyon. SEEDS alumnus Hertha Woody helped ESA connect with the Havasupai Nation; she worked closely with the former Havasupai tribal council during her tenure with Grand Canyon Trust as a tribal liaison. Hertha was instrumental in the planning of this experience for students. In attendance for this field trip were 17 undergraduate and graduate students, 1 alumnus, 1 Chapter advisor, and 2 ESA staff members (21 people total), representing eight Chapter campuses (Dine College Tuba City and Shiprock campuses, ASU, NAU, UNM, SIPI, NMSU, Stanford) – See Appendix A. The students were from a diverse and vibrant background; 42% were Native American, 26% White, 26% Hispanic and 5% Asian. All four of our speakers were Native American. The overall experience was profound given the esteem and generosity of the people who shared their knowledge with our group, the scale of the issues that were raised, the incredibly beautiful setting of Havasu Canyon, and the significant effort that it took to hike to Supai Village and the campgrounds – approximately 30 miles in three days at an elevation change of 1,500 feet each way.

  • US House of Representatives Natural Resources Subcommittee
    US House of Representatives Natural Resources Subcommittee Havasupai Tribe – Support for HR 1373 and Permanent Protection of the Grand Canyon Watershed from Mining Introduction My name is Carletta Tilousi and I am an elected Member of the Havasupai Tribal Council. I am here on behalf of the Havasupai Tribe to support HR 1373, which will permanently ban uranium mining and the establishment of new mining claims on federal lands located next to the Grand Canyon National Park and the Havasupai Indian Reservation. The Tribe supports the Bill because it will permanently protect one million acres of public lands from mining, including uranium mining that threatens Havasu Creek, which flows through our homeland and forms our famous waterfalls. The Grand Canyon is a world famous natural wonder and a national treasure. Millions of people visit the Grand Canyon every year. Many Americans falsely believe that public lands like the Grand Canyon, and the federal lands surrounding the Grand Canyon, are already protected from development and mining. However, the 1872 Mining Law, that is still a valid US law, allows mining companies to stake mining claims and conduct mining operations on public lands. 1 Uranium mining has already poisoned and will continue to poison the Grand Canyon. It will poison the groundwater and aquifers that feed into the Colorado River. It will poison the land, the plants, the animals, the people that live there, and the visitors. The Havasupai Tribe is one of the most remote communities in North America. We are located at the bottom of the Grand Canyon in Supai Village, which is accessible only by horse, helicopter, or 8-mile hike.
