Bonus Episode: We Will Never Fade from Hidden Trails of Oregon Podcast
Description
In this special episode, we’re bringing you a story from the acclaimed series Hidden Trails of Oregon, hosted by award-winning travel writer Aaron Millar.
Join Aaron as he visits the Tamástslikt Cultural Institute, owned and operated by the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indians. Through the voice of Indigenous leader Bobbie Conner, you’ll discover the powerful, often untold history of the Cayuse, Umatilla, and Walla Walla peoples—whose ancestral lands stretch across Eastern Oregon.
This immersive journey weaves together sound-rich storytelling, historical insight, and the living traditions of a community determined to ensure their culture endures. It’s a profound look at the Oregon Trail from a perspective too often left out of history books, and a reminder of the resilience summed up in the words: Cháwna mun na’ámta – We will never fade.
