Tribal Projects

Rich History

Caribou Creek has a rich history of working together with Native American Tribes to create phenomenal compositions that push beyond the traditional confines of log construction. We love a creative challenge, and our tribal projects have never failed to deliver. Unique design, massive old-growth timber, integrated structural steel - whatever the needs of your project, Caribou Creek has the experience necessary to bring the vision to life.
