November is National Native American Heritage Month! And Big Bear is no stranger to Native Americans. Nestled in the heart of Big Bear Lake lies the rich heritage of the Yuhaaviatam people, also known as the San Bernardino Shoshone.
For thousands of years, they have called these mountains and valleys home, weaving a deep connection to the land, water, and sky. Their knowledge of the natural world and cultural traditions continue to inspire and remind us of the importance of preserving and respecting indigenous histories. Happy National Native American Heritage Month!🌿✨
