Blue Lake Rancheria

The Blue Lake Rancheria of the Wiyot, Yurok, and Hupa Indians is located in Humboldt County, California.

In 1966, the United States Government returned the Blue Lake Rancheria to the tribe and removed all Native rights from the tribe's citizens. These rights were returned in 1989 and the tribe now operates under their own constitution.

Famous quotes containing the words blue and/or lake:

    “Dear Friend,
    the canebrakes
    nestled in the riverbank’s lap,
    their clusters broken
    from the weight of blue bees,
    have in time
    become stumps.”
    —Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    “Turn back,
    back
    to the lake of Delos;
    lest all the song notes
    pause and break
    across a blood-stained throat....”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
