Coeur d'Alene Tribe

Our ancestors hunted, fished, and gathered for subsistence among high plains and forested mountain regions, powerful rivers, and lakes. They negotiated a treaty with the United States in 1855, and today, our 69,299-acre Coeur d’Alene Reservation is near the town of Plummer, Idaho. Our constitution provides for a general council form of government.
