The Yurok Tribe is the largest federally recognized Indian tribe in California and has a reservation that straddles the majestic Klamath River, extending for one mile on each side of the river, from its entry into the Pacific Ocean to approximately 45 miles upriver to the confluence with the Trinity River. The Klamath River supports some of the best salmon fishing in California.
The reservation is also home to some of the largest redwood trees on the world. The Tribe’s major initiatives include: natural resources management, fisheries protection, watershed restoration, dam removal, condor reintroduction, cultural revitalization, language preservation and land acquisition.
