In the winter, #NezPerce built pole-framed structures over large pits and covered them with layers of cedar bark, sagebrush, packed grass, and earth. Each dwelling usually housed several families, and a village might consist of five or six such pit houses.

Nez Perce Peak, 11,906ft
Grand Teton National Park, #WY
#Climbing the Middle #Teton with a buddy, we were nearing the top of Cunningham Ridge as #sunset came upon us. Oops. The view of #NezPerce below us to the east was amazing, despite a cold night out in the #mountains. #JacksonHole #GTNP
Although #NezPerce men were mainly in charge of the fishing, women assisted in gutting, drying, and storing the large volumes of fish that were caught.
The #NezPerce tribe provided assistance that may have prevented members of the Lewis & Clark expedition from starving. They also helped the explorers build boats and guided them toward the Pacific Coast.
The #NezPerce assisted Lewis and Clark when they were near starvation, in 1805
The Prophet Dance, the oldest of the series of prophetic movements, generally involved dancing in a circle with a leader making vision-inspired prophecies in a trance-like state. The messages were deeply religious in tone and emphasized a renewal of life. #NezPerce

In the early 1860s gold was discovered on #NezPerce land, and white settlers began pressuring the US Government to open more tribal land for mining and settlement

It's #winter, and a boy's thoughts turn to #snowshoeing in #GrandTeton #NationalPark. I stomped around off-trail before turning back to the #ValleyTrail and XC skiers. Other than them, I had the place to myself.
I believe the peaks are #NezPerce #MiddleTeton #Owen.

Quote from C. E. S. Wood (ca. 1927): "In my youth, as an Army officer I chased and killed Indians driven to revolt by the oppressions of the vague thing called 'the Government.' Looking deeper, I saw that 'Government' was in fact a corrupt gang which defrauded the Indian and drove him to open revolt...I found I must obey the orders of men whose intellects I could not respect, who were themselves only puppets and were idolaters of 'the Government' and its emblem 'the flag,' regardless of acts done in violation of all the traditions of the flag."
Seems proper to finally finish William T. Vollmann's THE DYING GRASS today.

A flight with the Nez Perce Tribe over the Snake River showed two very different stories: blocked salmon migration at the dams & thriving tributaries upstream.
The aerial view helps partners see the full picture and guide what comes next.

I am currently reading THE DYING GRASS, but there is no such thing as too much Vollmann. Although I'm an atheist, I can see the beauty in other beliefs. With humility, and humanity: "Among the discarded of the world"
