UTE MOUNTAIN UTE RESERVATION, Colorado — The wind whipped dust around Latoya Laner’s face, her hand-beaded earrings swaying as she greeted a semi-truck driver on a sunny autumn afternoon. Late November meant harvest season on the reservation, and the driver offloaded yellow corn kernels, gathered from the nearby fields, into the grain silos before pulling his big rig away. “That is ours,” said Laner, a Ute Mountain Ute tribal descendant whose father is a member of the tribe.
