Best Answer

It is not clear if you mean Washington state or Washington DC - in both cases there were no tribes that used tipis.

In Washington state there were no buffalo hunting groups because there were no buffalo - therefore no buffalo hides for tipi covers. People like the Southern Coast Salish, Cosans and Chinookans depended far more on fishing or hunting elk.

In the area of Washington DC the original inhabitants were the Nacotchtank, an Algonquian-speaking tribe who were connected with the Piscataway. Both these tribes used longhouses that may have been thatched rather than covered with sheets of bark. They certainly had no tipis.
