Maqlaqs Paddle (Peoples Paddle) goal is to increase stewardship of natural waterways by providing whitewater recreation and experiential knowledge to native communities. Through the Paddle Tribal Waters program, they are training native youth and adults to be the first people to descend the soon to be undammed Klamath River. Via partnership with local native instructors, participants will be supported in intimately knowing and navigating the waters that they will become future stewards of.
