JC> In a nutshell... Land that has been put in "trust" for the NAs to
 JC> use. Usually not part of the reservation. They may or may not "own" it
 JC> outright. The "trust" status usually allows them to _use_ the land
 JC> just like reservation land that the tribe might "own". An example
 JC> would be the Spirit Mountian casino here in Oregon. The casino is
 JC> built on "trust" land, not on the reservation. The federal government,
 JC> however, is the body that confers that "trust" status on the land as
 JC> the result of a "petition" process. It wouldn't be automatic.
 
 I will be visiting Oregon in a couple of months and I would like to
 maybe go to Spirit Mountain Casino.
 Could you tell me where the casino is and how to get there.
 Thank you,
 Roy Breitenstein
