Dec 29, 2008. /Lesprom.com/. The Klamath Tribes will buy 90 thousand acres of their former reservation from the Southern Oregon company Cascade Timberlands, informed Lesprom Network according to Trust for Public Land. The tract represents a fraction of the reservation of 2.5 million acres the tribe had less than a century ago. But it is thick with lodgepole pine, and the tribal officials say they hope to use it to revive the timber industry that once sustained them. Under the agreement, the tribes will pay $21 million for the acreage. The tribes say they want to pay for the land with federal funding.
