Saturday, April 30, 1:00-2:15 PM. The History and Culture of the Washoe Tribe.

Join the Tahoe Rim Trail Association, along with the Friends of the Library, for a presentation on the history and culture of the Washoe Tribe.

This Trail Talk will provide an overview of the history and culture of the Washoe Tribe in the Lake Tahoe Region. The Washoe presence at Lake Tahoe dates back at least two thousand years. Presently, the Tribe works with state, private, and federal entities to blend a Washoe perspective with best scientific practices to restore the region’s ecosystems.

This talk will help those who enjoy recreating in the Tahoe Basin today understand what the landscape, wildlife, and people who lived here were like in the past. Free and open to all.
