Members of the Northern Ute Tribe of Utah went to Colorado over the weekend to meet with a king from Uganda.

King Oyo Nyibma Kabama Iguru Rukidi IV spent the day with tribal children learning how to ski. A tribal elder gave traditional headdress to Oyo as a gift.

At age 10, Oyo is considered the youngest king in the world. His visit with the tribe was arranged by the Native Voices Foundation.

The foundation was co-founded by Suzy Chaffee, a former Olympic skier.
