It does not matter what you or anyone talk about it is ceded land and they will hunt it....

Well yea, I get that it is most likely an informational meeting.  But there obviously has been enough unhappy people to warrant a meeting and that is a start.

Thanks for posting this because I hadn't heard anything about it and it sounds like this would be informative to hear what has to be said.  So I might be attending just to hear what has to be said.

man I love your attitude on this!!!  it's to bad you weren't there to tell our forefather's that it wasn't worth it to have a revolution, things could be so different!!! we need more people to not care about anything and not stand up for what they believe in

Just got back from the meeting..as expected, just the game dept. giving out the info on what is and isn't legal for the Muckleshoots.  There was some good questions answered and some good info given out though, but there was also a few things that really angered me too....I will be making some phone calls and sending some emails out tomorrow to the game dept. for sure....   Actually gotta give the muckleshoots some credit, they have to use tags that are issued to them, they have quotas, they have set seasons and they have to report their activity.  Unfortunatly the Yakama's don't have any of that....the yakama's did have two representatives from their game dept. there to answer questions which was nice, but they also mentioned a couple things that are really NOT good for us, but I'll divulge that info at a later date.

Did anyone ask if there is any possible way to move the Nile feeding station. I think they should start feeding at the bottom of Johnsons Canyon. That would alleviate a ton of problems with the Natives killing so many animals in the winter.  Just my

Or why don't they just gate off the road and give only a key to the residents like the residents wanted.  This way you are not taking any rights or opportunities away from the Yakamas you are just forcing them to access the area like their ancestors did.  On Foot!!!!  The Treaty said they have the right to hunt all their ceded land.  I don't see anything in the treaty that says the WDFW or DNR can't lock gates blocking vehicle access to the ceded land. A gate doesn't mean they can't hunt it, it just means that they will actually have to work for their harvest.
