Indian Sacred Lands Program Works with Descendants of Chief Joseph and Nez Perce People to Secure Sacred Lands Sacred Lands in Their Beloved Wallowa Valley The Home of Chief Joseph Of all the Indians evicted from their homelands, none fought harder and more tragically for a country they loved than the Nez Perces of Chief Joseph, who occupied the beautiful Wallowa region of northeastern Oregon. “It is still our land... my father sleeps there, and I love it as I Protected on all sides by lofty mountain ranges and deep chasms, including Hells Canyon, love my mother.” Chief Joseph the lush, sparkling meadows of Wallowa Valley, with its gem, the glacial Wallowa Lake [above], provided delightful and easy living in the spring and summer. In cold weather the Indians descended into canyons like the Imnaha [below], where they lived in comfort, with abundant grass for their horses. MEMBERSHIP FORM In the 1870’s white men found a pass into the valley and began infringing on Nez Perce 13 Indian land. By a corrupt treaty, which Joseph’s people had not signed, the Indians were ordered to leave the region. Joseph, a humane and statesmanlike leader, did all he could to avoid conflict, but other Nez Perces resisted and war broke out, culminating in an epic 1300-mile Sacred fighting retreat by the Indians across Idaho and Montana to within only thirty miles of the Canadian border and safety. There, heartbroken for his surrounded and suffering people, Joseph made his noble speech Lands of capitulation in 1877: “From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever.” A great American’s plea by Wallace Stegner, with Alvin M. Josephy, Jr., editor for his homeland resonates The American Heritage Book of Natural Wonders, 1963 today, a century after his death.

The area is well-known, largely because of the Joseph Canyon Viewpoint, a highway pullout 30 miles north of Enterprise that overlooks the 2,000-foot depths of Joseph Canyon and is one of 38 sites that form the Nez Perce National Historical Park (http://www.nps.gov/nepe/index.htm). The Joseph Canyon Roadless Area is comprised of three main drainages: Swamp, Davis and Joseph Creeks. Joseph and Swamp Creeks are designated wild and scenic rivers within the roadless area and the Joseph Canyon Creek system is home to a large population of native Snake River steelhead, listed as threatened under ESA in August 1998. The area is renowned for wildlife and harbors old growth Ponderosa Pine woodlands. Joseph Canyon includes the historic Chico Trail and has significant historical value that embraces all of the major peoples that have shaped the region; the Nez Perce Indians; pioneers and settlers, the Forest Service, and backcountry hunters and hikers. The trails have been used since time immemorial. The proposed Joseph Canyon Wilderness area adjoins the Nez Perce Precious Lands Wildlife Area to the north (http://www.nezperce.org/Wolf/Exec_Summary.pdf). The Precious Lands are 15,000 acres of contiguous “roadless” lands including portions of Joseph Canyon and also adjoin to BLM and State lands to the north.

As a museum technician for Nez Perce National Historical Park and an American Indian, I've expressed grief that there just aren't enough American Indians in the museum field. A big question for me is why should American Indians be interested in working in a field that for many years exploited their ancestors? How could a museum attract American Indians into the field? In order to try to solve the problem and perhaps answer my own question I started a project to develop a new exhibit, created by children. I imagined a small exhibit case, enclosing a diorama portraying a day in the life of a Cecelia Alvarez (left, in white smock) and Sean Alvarez (right) help Nez Perce National Historical Park Nez Perce woman.

The Tonkawa had a distinct language, and their name, as that of the leading tribe, was applied to their linguistic family. They were one of the most warlike tribes during nearly two centu- ries of conflict with their enemy tribes on the Western plains and with the Spanish and, later, American settlers in the Southwest. Their men were famous warriors, and their chiefs bore many scars of battle. The Tonkawa women were also strong physically and vindictive in disposition. The people of this tribe were no- madic in their habits in the early his- toric period, moving their tipi villages according to the wishes of the chiefs Winnie and Chief Grant Richards ca. 1898 of the different bands. They planted a few crops, but were well known as great hunters of buffalo and deer, using bows and arrows and spears for weapons, as well as some firearms secured from early Spanish traders.

  • Geographic Variations in Water Quality and Recreational Use Along the Upper Wallowa River and Selected Tributaries
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Theodore R. McDowellfor the degree ofDoctor of Philosophy in Geography presented on December 21, 1979 Title:Geographic Variations in Water Quality and Recreational Use Along the Upper Wallowa River and Selected Tributaries Abstract approved: Redacted for privacy Assistant Pro(sp)sornarl es Rosenfeld Physical, chemical and bacterial water quality parameters of the upper Wallowa River were sampled periodically between July 2, 1978 and June 9, 1979 at nine stream and lake sampling sites.Water upstream from Wallowa Lake was typified by low nutrient concentra- tions ( generally below detectable limits except for nitrates), low. specific conductivity (50-99 micromhos), and water temperatures below 15°C.Results of bacterial sampling were inconclusive, but sites and areas warranting further study were identified. An intensive study of spatial variations in bacterial water quality and recreational use was conducted at 15 stream and lake sampling sites on the East Fork of the Wallowa River between July 5 and September 3, 1979.Streamflow, precipitation, water temperatures, and fecal coliform bacteria counts were determined two or three times per week and during storm events.Levels and patterns of recreational use were also monitored during that period.Fecal coliform counts varied significantly (at the 0.001 p level) with geographic patterns of recreational use, but there was no significant relationship between levels of recreational use.Bacterial water quality also varied signi- ficantly (at the 0.001 p level) between
