One of Save the Redwoods League's largest projects, the Corridor from the Redwoods to the Sea when complete will protect a wild place of beauty and peace for all to enjoy. It also will establish a wildlife habitat corridor and preserve threatened species and a range of ecosystems, from deep ancient forest to windswept tidepools.
The Corridor links King Range National Recreation Area, a remote, rugged stretch of California shore, and Humboldt Redwoods State Park, the world's largest contiguous reserve of ancient redwoods and home to about 60% of the tallest trees.
In addition, the Corridor lies in the valley of the Mattole River - home to endangered coho salmon, chinook salmon and steelhead trout.
Since 1999, we have purchased 11,856 acres in the Corridor. Most of the land has been transferred to the United States Bureau of Land Management for protection, and some land will remain in private hands. All the lands will be subject to limitations on their use to ensure long-term preservation. In coming years, we will continue to expand our efforts in this critical area.
