Thanks for sharing this important - relatively recent- history with the broader community. I remember when you worked on this site, documenting the remaining artifacts. Years ago, I found remnants of a logging camp on my property nearby. There were no early records showing this site and the related logging activity, just altered terrain that must have resulted from logging roads…
Lisa! You found our youtube channel! I'm sure you heard me going on and on about that site... Was there logging camp rubbish at your logging camp site? Just the other day, I saw a Quartermaster Harbor mooring buoy map hanging on the wall and thought of you. It is so wonderful to see your words.
That is a goal of ours, to shed light on the history in the landscape around us. Glad to know sharing this information will make your kayaking trips more interesting! Thanks for watching and thanks for leaving a comment!
You are very welcome. I imagine not many people know about that history. One goal of Searching for History is to show the history, good or bad around the area where we live. Thanks for watching!
I always enjoy learning something new. I do wonder if you have ever approached anyone from one of the tribes to get their perspective. We are so used to history being taught from the settler perspective, I would love to hear some of the tribal memories of the same events. I realize that would add a huge amount to the already high workload of producing these videos, and I do appreciate the time and effort you put into them. It's just a thought I had. Thanks!
No problem. Ask any question and I will do my best to answer. No I have not specifically approached a Tribal member on this subject. The closest I have gotten is hearing an anecdote spoken by a tribal member while attending an unrelated meeting. In a couple cases, some of the information presented in the video did come from Tribal member written accounts that we found on the internet. The video is 100% based on information we found on the internet. In the end, we just have to keep moving on to making the next video. However, if a Tribal member watches this video and wants to provide more information, we would be happy to listen and learn.
Boarding schools is a sanitized name for what were actually concentration camps. Do you know why the people who survived were remanded to Squaxin Island by then General Stevens? This was because some families refused to sign the medicine creek treaty. They were sent to the island because it had no fresh water source on it. When they tried to leave by canoe to gather supplies they were shot at from Steamboat Island and Arcadia point.
I'm glad you liked it. Check out our most recent video on the Puget Sound War. We learned a lot putting this one together. ruclips.net/video/hwr2CBo7yds/видео.html
walking on trail along the bay, around the cove toward the north, which starts at the bay where the cannon placement sat, which would be to right. Another tid-bit, walking around the cove, then back up the other side, walking up to a slight point overlook, there used to be a gun in placement that sat there during ww2. There was a dug out pit area where it sat. I haven't been there now for over 30years.
An interesting bit of our local history, thanks for sharing. Also a common theme often repeated around the country in our nations history but important to acknowledge and remember. Unfortunately there are those to whom this would be too ‘woke’ and would best be left swept under the rug.
Well... it's the truth, and if we don't learn about history, we are doomed to repeat it. If you liked this video, check out our Puget Sound War video thar came out today. Thanks for watching!
How about a little less historical background and more walking around showing us the park. Your deliveries sound forced. You are obviously reading the narration.
Not read but trying from memory. Trying to remember what we want to say with the camera recording is a skill we are learning. Was there anything you liked about the video? 🙂 Thanks for watching!
We are trying a little different approach to story telling and making a video. Let us know what you think.
Yes, tell us what you think!
Given the material you had to work with, I think it told the story pretty well. But always adding maps to show where this is located would be good 😊
Schools like that are a huge black mark on US history, thanks for covering it in the context of your community.
@@ExploreTayo Yeah, it is an unfortunate history.
@@ExploreTayo Doh! You are correct, I forgot to add a map!

I grew up going to Priest Point. Wasn't aware of the history of it or that the name had changed until I came across your video. Thank you!

Love this! I have been looking for local history!
We are happy you enjoyed the video. We have other videos on local history. Please take a look. Thanks for watching!
Very well done! Thank you! 🐚🐚🐚
You are welcome! We are glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching!
Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing a forgotten story and an important and dark one for sure. Keep up the good stuff.
Thanks glad you liked it!
Very interesting video. What remains of this tribe and did they successfully assimilate.
The native people that once lived on Budd Inlet before the Euro-Americans arrived are the Squaxin Island Tribe. squaxinisland.org/government/info/
Love this, more please, North America has endless content
We are working on it. More content is coming. 🙂 Thanks for watching!

Great video!
Thanks so much. I'm glad you liked it!
use to work a p.p.p. I built the trail around eld inet. little known fact, the pilings in eld inlet, people said it rafted logs, it was an old bridge.
Interesting, which pilings?

Yeah, well, now imagine how the Steh-chas people felt, when the white settlers moved in and took over and changed everything.
