Nee'tahi'buhn

Nee Tahi Buhn is a name associated with François Lake, a long inland lake whose eastern outlet leads towards the Nechako. Wet’suwet’en-speaking families used the lands around François and Uncha lakes through a seasonal round of fishing, hunting and gathering plants. Their social life was ordered through matrilineal clans and the balhats, or potlatch, where economic, judicial and spiritual matters were addressed. The waterways and trails joined this lake country to neighbouring communities.
