Hydaburg
Hydaburg is a
captivating city steeped in Haida culture. Holding the distinction of being the most populous Haida Native
community in the United States, Hydaburg offers a glimpse into a unique way of
life. Nestled on the north shore of Sukkwan Strait, which connects to Cordova Bay
through Hetta Inlet, this first-class city within the Prince of Wales-Hyder
Census Area is a treasure trove of cultural experiences.
Hydaburg boasts the
magnificent Hydaburg Totem Park. Carved in the 1930s, these towering totem poles stand as
silent storytellers, their intricate designs whispering tales of ancestral
legends. But the cultural immersion
doesn't stop there. Every year, the city comes alive with the Hydaburg
Culture Camp. This vibrant event offers a chance to witness the community
spirit firsthand. From learning the
melodic Haida language to picking up the art of carving and weaving, the Culture Camp provides a
window into the soul of Hydaburg.
