“Ute Culturally Modified Trees” A Virtual Presentation with Lynn Albers, Library Associate – Local History and Ethnobotany Specialist | Hosted by Vail Public Library
Learn about living artifacts from the Ute traditional way of life. A culturally modified tree (CMT) is a tree that has been altered by an indigenous people for a specific purpose. Verified as an ancient worldwide tradition, cultural modification of trees includes inner tree bark use for food, ceremony, medicine, and practical utilitarian purposes. Distinctively peeled Colorado ponderosa pines are rare, yet impermanent, reminders of the Ute way of life.This event will take place via Zoom Meeting. No registration required.
