LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: The Chinook Trail Association recognizes that the Chinook Trail travels through the traditional lands of many Indigenous tribes. We acknowledge the painful history of genocide and their forced removal from these lands by the US government at various times throughout history. We are privileged to volunteer on these lands & express gratitude to the descendants of these tribes for being the original stewards of this land.
