I went on my search to learn more about the Native Americans that lived in the area of the fall. I started by looking up the official website of the fall. On the website (like at the waterfall) there was minimal information.
What stood out to me is that Native Americans were known as the Moon people who roamed the area. It gave a couple paragraphs and then it goes on to share about the white settlers, the father and uncle of the area.
Seriously! After all these years they couldn't give enough respect to add more about the native people of the land? At the waterfall there was minimal information but I was thinking that at least on their web page they could add more, I mean their tab does say History.
I'm sure you can tell I'm a bit frustrated that there's not a lot of information on the native people of the area. Seem disrespectful to me but I guess it could also mean that information on the native people might be around. Maybe like in Point Reyes, there isn't much information on the native people because not much was recorded, I hope this is the reason why.
Below is the history info I found on their cite in case anyone is interested.
The pictures on here were taken by me when on my trip.
Well, off I go in search for more.
