Indigenous youth make historic ride down the Klamath River

04:17

For the first time in more than a century, a group of Indigenous young people kayaked down the Klamath River, once restricted by dams.

It symbolizes a significant feat as Indigenous tribes have fought for years to undam this river that they've held sacred for generations.

Aspen Public Radio's Eleanor Bennett has the story.

This segment aired on August 26, 2025.
