Description
For the spring salmon-fishing season the southern division of the Hupa assembled at Sugar Bowl rapids of Trinity river, near the upper end of Hoopa valley. Each fishing station was the hereditary possession of some family. Men who owned no station begged the use of one from those who were either weary of fishing or had enough salmon for their immediate needs.
