Indigenous youth make historic ride down the Klamath River

For the first time in more than a century, a group of Indigenous young people kayaked down the Klamath River, once restricted by dams.

It symbolizes a significant feat as Indigenous tribes have fought for years to undam this river that they’ve held sacred for generations.

Aspen Public Radio’s Eleanor Bennett has the story.
