2006 Tribal Canoe Journey

Hosted this year by the Muckleshoot Tribe, this event welcomes more than 70 canoes coming from four major routes for landing at Sand Point, July 31. Tribes canoe from the North Central Coast of British Columbia / Inside Pass of Vancouver Island, Western Vancouver Island, Western Washington / Oregon, and the Puget Sound. The Tribal Canoe Journey seeks to honor centuries-old traditions of transport and trade by the coastal tribes of the Northwest, many of which often traveled the waters to meet and gather for festivities. http://www.muckleshoot.nsn.us/ All photos are posted; enjoy.
