The Upper Skagit Indian Tribe is a federally recognized Native American tribe located in the state of Washington . Before European colonization, the tribe occupied lands along the Skagit River , from as far downstream as present-day Mount Vernon, Washington , and villages going north as far as Newhalem along the Skagit River, as well as lands on the Baker , and the Sauk rivers.[2]
