On May 2, 2000, concerned members of the St'at'imc Nation established a permanent camp just off Highway 99 to protest the proposed development of a 500 million dollar ski resort by Nancy Greene Raine and her husband Al Raine (NGR) in the Cayoosh Mountain Range.
Government of BC Report.

This area of the Cayoosh mountain range has been occupied and used by the St'at'imc for as long as 10,000 years, following the retreat of the last glacial period which carved out the steep sided valley and jagged mountain tops.

Along with the gathering of food and medicines, hunting and fishing, the area was also used by shamans, who went to the mountains for purification, spiritual renewal, and training. These traditions continue to be practiced to the present day at Sutikahl as people gather to collect food, medicines, fresh water, and to participate in cultural and spiritual activities.

To this day this area remains unceded and unsurrendered St'at'imc territory, in which neither Canada nor The Province Of British Columbia have a legal right or moral authority to govern, claim territory, or carry out business.

That both levels of government continue to impose their authority is a violation of Canada's own laws and it's highest courts as defined by the 1763 Royal Proclamation, and reinforced by the 1997 Delgamuukw Supreme Court Decision.

How To Find Us

The Sutikalh camp is located on Highway 99 halfway between Mount Currie and Lillooet B.C. Look for an old logging road bridge over Cayoosh Creek, there is a banner in the trees approximately 100 meters north of the bridge. After crossing the bridge, follow the logging road off to the right for about 100 meters.
