California restores coast to tribes

California has transferred 136 acres of Blues Beach and surrounding Mendocino County bluffs to the nonprofit Kai Poma, representing the first time Caltrans-managed land has been returned to Indigenous tribes. The land, considered sacred by the Sherwood Valley Band of Pomo Indians, was purchased by the state in the 1960s for highway development. Tribal leaders emphasize the cultural and spiritual significance of the site, which will now be protected through cultural, archaeological, and environmental studies, with public access maintained from sunrise to sunset.
