History & geography

History

Permanent dwellings were established in Munthamar in the early 1990s. Prior to that community members lived in self-made shacks in the vicinity, on what is now the Mud Springs reserve. The initial dwellings were self-made shelters and not connected to reticulated power and water. While living conditions were modest, the newly established camp offered space away from town life.
