Jack Norton Papers

"As part of a project to create a paved 75-mile road linking two California towns Gasquet and Orleans, the United States Forest Service has upgraded 49 miles of previously unpaved roads on federal land. In order to complete this road (the GO Road) the Forest Service must build a 6-mile paved segment through the Chimney Rock section of the Six Rivers Nation Forest." This booklet is 41 pages of information of what the GO Road was supposed to be. As well as the detriment and heartache that the court decisions rendered had on the present and future Native Americans in the United States."
