What was the frame of the Sioux tipi made out of?

Question

I am doing a Native American report, I need to know what tipi frames are made of what wood.

Answer 1

I'm a Native woman.

I live in Oregon. Natives here use lodgepole pine.
Natives from Oregon weren't really teepee Indians. They probably learned this from the plains Natives.

Answer 2

I checked several sites and this is the only one that actually mentioned which type of wood was used.
