About Us
The Da'naxda'xw First Nation is an amalgamation of the Da'naxda'xw
and Awaetlala tribes of Knight Inlet. The main
village of the Da'naxda'xw, Tsatsisnukwomi, is situated at
Dead Point on Harbledown Island. This village is in Indian Channel
and approximately 25 kilometers east of Alert Bay on the west coast
of British Columbia, Canada.
The traditional territory of the Da'naxda'xw and Awaetlala
people are all of the lands adjacent to Knight Inlet from mountain
top to mountain top, all the watersheds that empty into Knight Inlet
to their head waters and the Klinaklini River to its source.
The southern boundary of the territory is defined by a line across
the Inlet from Protection Point to Hoeye Head.
We welcome visitors to our homeland as well
as economic development initiatives. |
