Known as "The People" of the Grand Canyon, the indigenous Hualapai and Havasupai tribes have lived along the Colorado River and the vast Colorado Plateau for more than 1,000 years. Both tribes traditionally moved seasonally between the plateau and the canyon, alternately hunting game and planting crops. Today they rely on their tourism offerings outside the national park as an economic base.
