A Collaborative Approach Among Agencies, Disciplines and Tribes to Study and Manage Conical Timber Lodges in the Greater Yellowstone Area
Summary
A variety of wooden structures exist in the northern Plains and Rocky Mountains; among these are conical timber lodges popularly referred to as "wickiups". For the purpose of this study, wickiups are defined as conical timber lodges built by Native Americans, though they may have been used by Euroamerican fur trappers and explorers. Few conical timber lodges have been recorded in the Greater Yellowstone Area and there are many unanswered questions pertaining to their function, tribal affiliation, and significance.
