Native Homelands

The Upper Feather River Watershed is the homeland of the Mountain Maidu. The eastern and south eastern region of the watershed also have deep cultural significance to the Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California, the Northern Paiute Tribe, and the Nisenan Tribe. Borderlands of this large and diverse watershed are home to several other tribes.

The Feather River Region has always been special to our family. There is so much diversity in the landscape and so much to explore. We enjoy hiking, boating and swimming at Lake Almanor, and also taking day-trips to Sierra Valley from our home in Reno. I am happy to support FRLT who is working hard to preserve these special wild places.
