are from Cape Flattery and the north-west tip of the United States' most
north-westerly state, Washington -- traditional home on the edge of the
Pacific of the native Indian Makah people, former whale hunters in
massive sea-going canoes carved from whole cedar trees; and, further
south, the Quileute and the Hoh.<em> </em>It's a stone's throw from Vancouver
Island, British Columbia, Canada across the Strait of Juan de Fuca
aboard the <a href="http://www.cohoferry.com"> <em>Coho</em> ferry</a><em> </em>to the timber town of Port
Angeles and out to Neah Bay.</span><em><span class="style1">
<span class="style2">Sandy beaches, rocky cliffs on the forest edge,
river estuaries, marshes and jagged rocks far offshore stretch past
small, mixed communities clinging to forestry, fishing and traditional
native life for hundreds of miles down the Washington coast past Oregon
and into California. The history and cultures of this place's native
owners reach several thousand years into the past. Though First Nations
people across Canada and the US have been coralled and shamelessly sidelined amid
poverty and continuing struggles since European settlers arrived, their
culture still flourishes. A first-class
<a href="http://www.makahmuseum.com">museum</a>
at Neah Bay houses an amazing collection of cultural artifacts preserved
from excavations begun in the late 1960's at Ozette. They depict the
daily life of a Makah community buried under a landslide 500 years ago.</span><br />
