SF Gate reports
A Native American tribe has regained a wide swath of rolling forests and rushing streams in Northern California in a landmark $14.1 million deal.
The 10,395-acre Pine Creek Tract in Humboldt County has been acquired by the Hoopa Valley Tribe, the tribe announced Wednesday. The land, around 20 miles northeast of Eureka, borders the western boundary of the tribe’s reservation, and was sold by Australian forest management company New Forests. Alongside other tribes in the region, the Hoopa Valley Tribe say they plan to remove river dams on the Klamath River, restore historic salmon runs and repopulate the meadows and forests with elk.
