How did the tribes of northern and western north american adapt to their environment?

The Native Americans in the Pacific Northwest adapted to their environment by making things out of wood. They depended on the fish, wildlife, and plants instead of farming. Natural resources you would find in the Northwest region were forests, fish, wild berries, and farm land.
