Minam, Oregon | |
Western BoundaryTraditionally, Minam Hill marked the westernmost boundary of the Wallowa band’s territory, as well as that of the entire Nez Perce people. As the highway crosses the river, Minam River flows into the Wallowa River on the south side of the bridge. This excellent hay country supported the Nez Perce herds of thousands of horses and cattle. Inside this boundary, all our people were born.It circles around the graves of our fathers, and will never give up these graves to any man.–Chief Joseph (Hinmatooyalahtqit) | |
