The Bureau of Land Management has acquired a 5-square-mile area of land known as Lost Coast Redwoods, which was previously private. This acquisition follows the Save the Redwoods League's landmark $36.9 million purchase in December 2021, considered Northern California's largest coastal land preservation deal in over two decades. Plans are underway to create public access to the forest and possible extensions to the Lost Coast Trail. This area, rich in old-growth redwoods and historically logged since the 1880s, now aims to enhance recreational opportunities for the public.
The acquisition of the Lost Coast Redwoods ensures public access to a region long kept private, potentially expanding trail networks and recreational opportunities.
This purchase marks the largest coastal land preservation deal in Northern California in over two decades, highlighting the ongoing efforts to protect natural landscapes.
