Skip Kuck from the Northwest Fur Trade Historians organization made the trip from Idaho where she lives to participate in the Rendezvous. With permission from the Spokane Indian Tribe to dress as a woman in mourning from their tribe would during the early 1800s, Kuck shared what women’s work consisted of - including the weaving of baskets so tight they could be used to carry water.
