THE YUROK WAY
The Yurok (Oohl) Tribe is California’s largest Native American Tribe with nearly 6,500 enrolled members. We have long been celebrated as great fishermen, eelers, basket weavers, canoe makers, storytellers, singers, dancers, healers, and strong medicine people. As stewards of the land, our way was to never overharvest but to always ensure the sustainability of our food supply for future generations. When our guests adventure the Yurok Way they leave a positive impact long after their visit, helping our community thrive.
