Lava Beds National Monument is turning 97 today! 🎉 lavabedsnps is both a beautiful landscape with over 800 caves and a historical site important to Native Americans of Modoc and Klamath descent. The park tells the story of the Modoc War, the only major conflict in California between Native Americans and white settlers. #DidYouKnow the nationalparkservice is looking for residents of the Klamath Basin to share oral stories for the Basin Legacy Oral History Project.
