Safety Tips while visiting the Reservation
While visiting our reservation it is a good idea to be prepared and cautious.
Here are a few suggestions to make your trip a little safer and more enjoyable.
D Drive safely, watch out for other vehicles and
road damage. During hazardous road conditions
be especially careful (snow, ice, etc.).
O Check with the Natural Resources office for
possible job activity taking place on the reserva
tion and surrounding areas (logging, road work,
etc.).
D Be aware of people using firearms near or on
the reservation, always dress to be seen during
hunting seasons, and be careful at the rock quarry
of people target practicing.
D Always know where you are in the woods. If
not familiar with the area, stop and get a map
from the Natural Resources office. Contact the
local forest service office for roads in the surround
ing area.

are positive they are safe and edible.
