Some of the road signs on the rez are also in Salish. Maybe. Not only can 
nobody pronounce them there is some disagreement on what they really mean. 
'shining peak' has been superceeded by 'big fucking mountain with no 
trees'. The typography on the signs is unique as in the 'Animal's Bridge' 
sign.

fwiw, I've stopped and walked across the bridge. I didn't see any evidence 
of animals using it.

I think it's around Arlee but one of the signs has the translation 'Place 
where they gibs stuff'. Not much changes.

The Indians got screwed on that rez. They allocated a number of acres to 
each family and then said 'Look at all the land left over! We'll sell it 
to the whites!'  Somehow the best farmland was what was left over.
