BAYFIELD COUNTY - The Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa recently added 80 acres of vacant forest land on Sand Point Road within its reservation boundaries, aiding hunting, harvesting, and repatriation efforts. According to Chairwoman Nicole Boyd, reclaiming land provides safe access and tribal management for future generations, fulfilling members’ desire for more hunting, harvesting, and Treaty Rights. The reservation, established by treaty, now exceeds 15,000 acres, despite significant decreases by 2006. In June 2022, the tribe reclaimed all tribal land from Bayfield County and continues to seek reclamation for residential, municipal, agricultural, and commercial expansion.
