Tribal Relations
Tribes
The Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest recognizes and celebrates the sovereignty of over 26 federally recognized Tribes with ancestral ties to this region. Our intent is to partner with Tribal Nations to respectfully support spiritual, cultural and traditional ties to these lands by nurturing opportunities to integrate traditional ecological knowledge, youth engagement, and economic development in our tribal communities.
We honor our tribal trust responsibilities and support government to government consultation through shared stewardship of our natural and cultural resources. By nurturing existing and encouraging new partnerships we collaborate on Forest management projects that promote resilient ecosystems and mutually beneficial relationships with our tribal partners.

“Through a true collaborative process among culturally affiliated Tribes, U.S. Forest Service, The Mountain Institute, Portland State University, and Dr. Jeremy Spoon, coupled with various federal agencies and many stakeholders, we share a strong message to ground not only our exhibit in the Seven Stones Plaza, but the importance of this location. Within this area, there are hidden messages embedded throughout this special place. When a person walks through, you’ll discover things every time you visit, bringing a new message to welcome you!” ~Richard Arnold, Chairman of the Pahrump Paiute Tribe
