360-acre addition will make Armstrong Redwoods stronger
onExpanding parks like Armstrong Redwoods is one of the League’s foundational commitments, and we recently delivered on this promise. Save the Redwoods League acquired Armstrong Ridge, a 360-acre property consisting of two privately owned parcels on the slopes directly above the state reserve. Situated in the traditional lands of the Southern Pomo, the property is home to a mature second growth forest and about 23 acres of old growth redwoods along a steep ravine—a location that may explain how these ancient trees survived commercial logging. The property is now being leased and managed by California State Parks until it can be officially added to the reserve.
