Goshoutes Indians

The Goushoute Indians where a group of native people who roamed from the lands just south of Salt Lake City all the way to Steopotor Range in Nevada. At their height they numbered 20,000 men and women.

Today there is around 500 indians left from this tribe. Of which many live on the inidan reservation named Skull Valley Band of Godhute, which is about 45 minutes south of Salt Lake. It is likely that the tribe got its name from an old Indian word meaning, “desert people”
