They subsequently have increased reservation land to 2,500 acres (10 km²), including of tribally owned trust land. Like most Northwest Coast indigenous peoples, prior to European settlement, the Nooksack relied on fishing as well as gathering for sustenance.

==Language==
(詳細はCoast Salishan family of Native American but became extinct around 1988. In the 1970s the Salishan linguist Brent Galloway worked closely with the last remaining fluent speaker. He worked toward creating a dictionary of their language but it's unclear if that work was published before his death. His 2009 book ''Dictionary of Upriver Halkomelem'' covers a language that was in the same region but distinct from that spoken by the Nooksack people.〔( Notice of Brent D. Galloway, Dictionary of Upriver Halkomelem, UC Publications in Linguistics, 141 )〕
