In the record
The atlas records 1 broken treaty promise involving Ute Indian Tribe of the Uintah and Ouray Reservation: Bears Ears National Monument (2016-2026): designation, reductions, restoration and the July 2026 action (context, not a treaty claim). One court case turned on its rights: Hagen v. Utah.
This nation carries the history of Ute in the treaty record. Land has come back: Ute Indian Tribe and Utah trust land disputes.
