League Unveils Strategic Plan for Years 2003-2008

Save-the-Redwoods
League
ANNUAL REPORT 2003

LAND PROTECTED
In addition to the purchase
of Mill Creek (see pages 4
and 5), the League expanded
parks throughout the
range of the redwoods.
Butano State Park The
League recently purchased
one of the few remaining
stands of unprotected
ancient redwoods near
Butano State Park.
Protection of this 80-acre
parcel secures nesting habitat
for the marbled murrelet,
a threatened seabird
that requires the structure of
the ancient forest to nest.
Corridor from the
Redwoods to the Sea
The League added 160 acres
to the Corridor from the
Redwoods to the Sea
expanding linkages between
Humboldt Redwoods State
Park and the King Range
National Conservation Area.
Protection of this land helps
secure a corridor for
wildlife, connecting the
world’s largest old-growth
redwood forest to California’s
longest un-roaded coastal area.
Calaveras Big Trees State
Park The League added a
one acre in-holding to this
park. Although small, acquisition
of this property is
consistent with our goal of
complete watershed protection
for the remaining
ancient redwood forests, one
parcel at a time.

Project Accomplishments for 2002-2003
John B. Dewitt State
Reserve The League completed
its the first purchase
from Pacific Lumber
Company since it came
under ownership of
Maxxam. The project protected
500 acres on the
slopes above the Eel River
and the magnificent ancient
redwoods of the
Whittemore Grove.
REDWOOD EDUCATION
The League’s education program
provides teachers and
students with support and
tools to incorporate redwood
education into their
curricula. In September
2002, the League awarded
thirteen statewide education
grants totaling $50,000 to
K-12 educators, teachers
and students.
This year the League published
a set of redwood education
materials to introduce
children to the ancient
redwood forest. Contact our
office to receive your copy.
REDWOOD RESEARCH
The League’s Research
Grant Program supports
research that expands
knowledge of redwood forest
dynamics. Through this
program, Professor Steve
Sillett of Humboldt State
University is unlocking the
secrets of coast redwood
canopies by monitoring soil
deposits suspended in the
branches of ancient redwood
trees. This is just one
of the many research projects
this program supports.
THOUSANDS MORE JOIN!
The League welcomed
4,068 new members in
2002 – 2003. Of those
members, 322 are now
members of the Redwood
Leadership Society, part of
the League’s premiere circle
of supporters.
NEW GROVES
Our donors dedicated seven
new groves in the past year.
New groves are available for
dedication at both Jedediah
Smith Redwoods and
Limekiln State Parks and at
the newly acquired Daly
property on the Avenue of
the Giants.
ENGAGING OTHERS
Through the generous contribution
of ad space from several
magazines, Save-the-
Redwoods League has reached
over 7.72 million readers.
Save-the-Redwoods League

League Unveils Strategic Plan for Years 2003-2008
Recognizing the changing and intensifying threats to the redwood forests, Save-the-Redwoods
League recently completed a five-year strategic plan to guide its work. The vision is that the
League’s day-to-day conservation activities—ranging from simple public outreach to complex land
transactions—will cumulatively complement each other to foster comprehensive ecosystem protection.
In doing so, the League will maximize the protection of ancient forests, their surrounding
lands, and the fish and wildlife that depend upon them. The League has defined three major
Strategic Priorities – each of critical and equal importance in pursuing the League’s mission.
COMPREHENSIVE
REDWOODS CONSERVATION
Through acquisition,
restoration, management,
and stewardship, the League
aims to:
• Preserve core old-growth
redwoods.
• Preserve strategic linkages
between and buffers to
old-growth reserves.
• Restore critical secondgrowth
redwood forests to
old-growth characteristics.
OTHER AREAS OF FOCUS
Other strategic initiatives
will also be pursued.
These include:
• Exploring opportunities
for interpretive centers at
Hartsook Inn (a historic
lodge near the "gateway"
to the northern redwood
region), in urban areas,
and in Southern
California.
PUBLIC AWARENESS
AND EDUCATION
Helping people make connections
with, appreciate,
and promote the importance
and relevance of redwood
forests, the League will:
• Connect people to the
redwood forest.
• Deepen partnerships to
support effective education.
• Expand engagement in
interpretation of the redwood
forest.
• Fostering strong partnerships
with private and governmental
agencies in the
redwood region.
• Assisting the California
State Department of Parks
and Recreation in its goals
of stewardship, diversity,
education, and urban
focus.
INCREASE ORGANIZATIONAL
EFFECTIVENESS
Increasing the effectiveness
and understanding of Savethe-Redwoods
League is
critical for continued success.
The focus in this area
is two-fold:
• Expanding League membership
while broadening
funding support.
• Fostering a healthy, productive,
mission-focused
organization.
• Supporting and promoting
research that enhances
understanding of the
redwood ecosystem.
• Supporting landowner
education to reinforce sustainable
stewardship practices
and stimulate the
management of secondgrowth
redwood forests to
develop old-growth characteristics.
A copy of the League's Strategic Plan for 2003 - 2008 is available in the office upon request.
Annual Report 2003 Page 3

Afederally threatened
northern spotted owl
soars silently through the
old-growth forest, and then
disappears into a high snag
cavity overlooking the sundappled
floor. A small marbled
murrelet, endangered
and elusive, flies inland from
the sea to lay its egg on the
mossy branch of an ancient
coast redwood. A tiny coho
salmon fry rests in a clear
pool of Mill Creek, cooled
by the shade of tall trees.
In June 2002, successful
acquisition of the 25,000acre
Mill Creek in coastal Del
Norte County — the
League’s largest project to
date — marked the permanent
protection of these forest
and stream ecosystems as a
California State Park.
Reuniting Mill Creek with
surrounding forests strengthened
connections to more
than six million acres of land
in public ownership. It also
strengthened the League’s
own connections to long-time
partner agency, the California
Department of Parks and
Recreation. These linkages
reflect an 85-year history of
working with the
Page 4
Mill Creek Collaborations Reflect
the League’s Legacy and Vision
Department, as more than six
out of ten acres in California’s
redwood parks have been
protected by the League.
Despite the League’s persistent
efforts, less than
4 percent of original coast
redwood forest survives. The
Northern redwood region
encompass 44 percent of all
that remains. At Mill Creek,
200 acres of pristine oldgrowth
redwoods persist in
precious islands that, in
time, will connect to larger
ancient groves in surrounding
parks. By preserving
Mill and Rock Creeks, the
land also provides complete
watershed-level protection
for some of the world’s most
primeval redwoods in
Jedediah Smith Redwoods
State Park. As a landscape
interface, it forges habitat
linkages between the interior
Klamath-Siskiyou bioregion
and coastal Redwood
National and State Parks.
The $60-million purchase
of Mill Creek was
a collaborative achievement:
$15 million from Leaguesecured
private funds and
$45 million from public
funds. Working through
state legislators and public
agencies, the League rallied
support from the California
Department of Fish and
Game, US Fish and Wildlife
Service, California Wildlife
Conservation Board,
California Coastal
Conservancy, and California
Department of Parks and
Recreation. The League’s
funds comprised foundation
support, individual contributions
by 12,000 members
ranging from $5 to $5 million,
and League resources.
These invested reserves
enable the League to mobilize
efforts quickly, seizing
small- and large-scale opportunities
for conservation.
Traditionally, the League
has focused efforts on
purchasing redwood lands
that are then turned over to
the State or National Park
Systems. However, with Mill
Creek, partnerships and
vision will continue beyond
acquisition. League involvement
in ecological restoration
and stewardship will
complement conservation
here and in future projects.
Save-the-Redwoods League

For decades, much of Mill
Creek was commercially
harvested for timber. This
left in its wake a sea of
young trees in unnaturally
high densities scarred by a
network of roads. Yet surviving
here are 5 salmon and
trout species, 23 listed ani-
mal species, 15 vegetation
communities, and 300 plant
species, including Douglasfir,
knob cone pine, Port
Orford cedar, and the carnivorous
pitcher plant.
Biodiversity from the
canopy to the creek bed
coupled with the area’s geology
and climate — ideal
underlying structures for
growing redwoods — provide
optimism for the
restoration of terrestrial and
aquatic habitats to their
original conditions.
Working with public
agencies and Del
Norte County, the League
will explore recommendations
for minimizing
impacts of roads, reducing
catastrophic fire risk, and
developing old-forest characteristics
in the young
stands. Through these partnerships,
the League will
build more than healthy
ecosystems; it will build
bonds for future conservation
efforts.
Forest restoration will
have ripple effects for
creek health, too. Clear, cool
water and stream banks stabilized
by a healthy forest
will help increase numbers
of salmon and trout spawning
in Mill Creek’s waterways.
These waters support
California’s most prolific
wild coho salmon nursery.
Increasing healthy populations
is important. These
protected tributaries are
refugia, the primary sources
of fish vital for the recolonization
of degraded populations
up and down the
MILL CREEK’S SHINING EXAMPLE
From the mink-like Pacific fisher, which eludes most visitors,
to the year-round Pacific fog, which shrouds the redwood forest
in a veil of moisture, Mill Creek encompasses all the features
the League seeks in a project. Its old-growth forests and
biodiversity coupled with the support of public agencies provide
ideal opportunities for protection. Often old-growth cores
are less viable, because they are small, fragmented, or degraded
or they lie in watersheds that are not fully protected. However,
Mill Creek’s ancient forests are preserved on the watershed
level and, in time, will connect to other primeval forests in surrounding
public lands.
Smith River, one of America’s
last undammed rivers.
Through continuing collaborations
around Mill
Creek, the League will help
promote academic research,
environmental education,
and docent-led interpretative
excursions to increase
understanding and appreciation
of redwood ecosystems.
Ultimately, as Mill Creek’s
forests mature, fish populations
increase, and our
knowledge and support
deepen so will the League’s
strategies for conservation
here and beyond.
The two rare birds of the
old-growth take flight.
The spotted owl, soon after
sunset, scans the darkening
spaces between black tree silhouettes
for rodents. The
marbled murrelet returns to
the Pacific after its young has
fledged. The coho salmon,
mature and ready to spawn
in natal waters, holds promise
for the next, larger generation
in the Smith River,
and upon completion of its
lifecycle, will nourish the
forest that helped support it.
