Wet'suwet'en

Wet’suwet’en country extends along the Bulkley and Morice rivers and into the western Fraser headwaters. The people lived in a network of house territories, with hereditary chiefs responsible for lands and fishing places on behalf of their kin. In winter families dispersed to hunt and fish, returning to summer villages on the Bulkley for the salmon runs. Feasts brought people together and affirmed the names and responsibilities held by their houses and clans.
