 landmarks and environmentally sensitive lands; they also served as early precedents for parks and other protected lands elsewhere in the world.  In sequestering these special places, early conservationists and the National Park Service sought to preserve in
 a "natural" condition many places and habitats that were, in truth, occupied, used, managed, and in many cases created by Native American communities. Manifesting nationalist agendas, and rooted in Victorian conceptualizations of wildness, new national parks
 curtailed Native access in myriad ways, while creating colonized recreational spaces within lands of enduring ethnobotanical significance to tribes. Over a century later, the foundational logic of early conservation efforts still sparks conflicts over Native
 access to anthropogenic plant communities, as well as the management and representation of these culturally keystone places. Recent interdisciplinary research, guided by the knowledge and perspectives of Native knowledge-holders, has helped to reshape our
 ways of understanding the enduring relationships between Native communities and the plant habitats they have sustained, while also helping to overturn a century or more of federal policy that excludes Native harvesters. This presentation draws lessons from
 several national park cases, including plant communities traditionally used and managed by tribes at what is today Yosemite National Park, Crater Lake National Park, and other parks of the Northwest.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
