Develop an American Indian Travel Guide to the Anza Trail

The National Park Service intends to award a cooperative agreement to the American Indian Alaska Native Tourism Association to develop an American Indian travel guide to the Anza Trail. The project aims to improve communications and present tribal communities along the historic Anza Expedition corridor to the public. The guide will be developed in a phased approach, with the initial phase focusing on outreach, content analysis, and tribal mapping. The project will promote a better understanding and appreciation of indigenous tribal communities along the Anza Trail and advance Indian Country tourism. Key aspects of the project include: • Developing a tribal travel guide and map • Creating a tribal tourism product specific to the trail • Identifying tribal mapping and interpretation of the trail • Developing a tribal tour itinerary • Guiding the layout and focus of the guide to include Southern Arizona, Southern California, and Northern California tribes associated with the trail
