Warm Springs Indian Reservation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Warm Springs Indian Reservation is a barren 640,000 acres (2,590 km²) located in north central Oregon (parts of Wasco County and Jefferson County), 105 miles southeast of Portland. |
 | | The Warm Springs and Wasco bands gave up their rights to a 10,000,000 acre (40,000 km²) area they had occupied for over 10,000 years in exchange for the reservation, fishing rights to such areas as Celilo Falls, $150,000 in annuities, provisions, and promises of assistance in such areas as health care, education, and farming. |
 | | In 1879, the U.S. government moved a small group of Paiutes to the reservation in spite of that tribe's history of conflict with Columbia River tribes. |
