Upper Skagit Indian Tribe

The Upper Skagit are a federally recognized Native American tribe living in the state of Washington. Before European colonization, the tribe occupied lands along the Skagit River, from as far downstream as present-day Mount Vernon, Washington, and villages going north as far as Newhalem along the Skagit River, as well as lands on the Baker, and the Sauk rivers.〔Collins, June M. ''Valley of the Spirits: The Upper Skagit Indians of Western Washington.'' Seattle: University of Washington Press. 1974, p. 17.〕
Culturally, the Upper Skagit share characteristics with the Lower Skagit, the Coast Salish, such as the Sauk-Suiattle Indian Tribe, as well as the Plateau Indians on the eastern side of the Cascade Mountains.〔Markowitz, Harvey. ''American Indians'', Salem Press, 1995, p.726.〕 They traditionally spoke Lushootseed, part of the Salishan language family. It was spoken by many coastal tribes of the Northwest.
