STORY AND PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK Visitors to this year’s Wagon Days Parade sadly missed out on a performance by the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes due to a scheduling snafu. But those attending the annual Sawtooth Salmon Festival in Stanley got to watch a colorful performance displaying their beautiful dress of beadwork, feathers and ribbons. The Shoshone tribe, sometimes known as Snake Indians, number about 10,000 members in Idaho, Nevada and Wyoming with the largest reservation in Idaho being the Fort Hall Reservation in southeastern Idaho.
They keep their culture and religion alive through dance with different dances for different occasions. The most popular are the Jingle, Grass and Fancy dances, which are usually performed by young men, who get low to the ground as they perform fast footwork.
