The Snoqualmie Tribe of Washington is asking for the return of n ancestral land now being used as a park.

Snoqualmie Chief Jerry Kanim, who died in 1956, lived on land that is part of Tolt River John MacDonald Park in King County. The park is the site of a tribal village and traditional campground.

Over the years, King County has handed control of parks to local jurisdictions. Officials say they are willing to talk with the tribe.
