In 1870 a group of 180 Modocs, led by leaders Kintpuash (Captain Jack, above) and Hooker Jim, fled the reservation and returned to their homelands. In 1872, 1000 soldiers tried to return the Modocs to the Klamath reservation, but Kintpush led his people to the lava beds near Tule Lake. It took 6 months for the soldiers to get Kintpuash and his followers out of the lava beds.
