Dear Friends of Save the Redwoods League, For 100 years, our organization has been protecting and restoring the redwood forests and connecting people to their peace and beauty. We have protected 214,000 acres, saving treasured examples of our coast redwood and giant sequoia forests. We helped create and expand 66 redwood parks, forming the California state parks system and touching the lives of hundreds of millions of redwood park visitors across generations. And we have invested in scientific research, greatly enhancing our understanding of the natural world. Our year-long Centennial celebration began in January 2018, the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered in this annual report. The celebration was about more than looking back and admiring our legacy. It was about celebrating with you and community members who rallied with us—and who will rally again—to save California’s iconic redwood forests. You make our work possible, and together, we can build hope and momentum for a new era of leadership to protect and heal our forests. In our second century, we are committed to doing the extraordinary. We will dramatically accelerate the pace and scale of land conservation in the redwood forests; set entire landscapes of young recovering forests on a restoration trajectory to become the old-growth forests of tomorrow; Sam Hodder, President and CEO, and revitalize the redwood parks that will inspire the next left; and Justin Faggioli, Chair of generation with a deeper understanding and appreciation the Board. of the redwood forests.

We are working to double the protected forest reserve over the next 100 Protect years, and ensure its health and beauty Protecting the ancient redwoods will endure for coming generations. and the vibrant forest landscapes that sustain them AGREEMENT COMPLETED TO SAVE LARGEST PRIVATE ANCIENT COAST REDWOOD FOREST Near the Sonoma coast lies 730 acres of pristine ancient coast redwood forest, a wonder that was unknown to the public until recently. Formerly known as McApin Ranch, Harold Richardson Redwoods Reserve shelters the 1,640-year-old McApin Tree, the oldest-known coast redwood south of Mendocino County. The League secured an agreement to purchase and permanently protect the property from harvesting, subdivision, and development. Named after the man who owned and managed the forest for decades, the reserve is one-third larger than the famous Muir Woods National Monument and contains 47 percent more old- growth redwoods. In fiscal year 2017-18, the League completed work for an exchange of the 870-acre Stewarts Point property (permanently protected with a conservation easement) and a $9.6 million payment for the reserve. Major funding came from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, two anonymous donors, and The Mattson Family Foundation. League members also provided generous support, collectively more than $500,000 toward the purchase completed in fiscal year 2018-19. Pending a final management plan, the League will create the first ancient redwood park in a generation, opening the reserve to the public. See a video showing this amazing forest: SaveTheRedwoods.org/HRRR. 6 Save the Redwoods League Annual Report 2018 Red Hill shelters 110 ancient giant sequoia, by most assessments, the largest, oldest and most magnificent trees in the surrounding area of Giant Sequoia National Monument. OPPOSITE PAGE The League negotiated an agreement to purchase and permanently protect Harold Richardson Redwoods Reserve, which contains more than 1,450 old-growth redwood trees. AGREEMENT REACHED TO PURCHASE ONE OF LAST PRIVATE GIANT SEQUOIA FORESTS Within the magnificent Giant Sequoia National Monument is the 160-acre Red Hill property, the second-largest giant sequoia grove in private hands. Red Hill contains 110 spectacular giant sequoia trees, some of the oldest, most massive and most spectacular trees in the world. The League completed work in fiscal year 2017-18 to purchase the forest, and acquired the property in June 2018. We intend to eventually transfer the property to the US Forest Service for permanent protection as part of the monument and Sequoia National Forest. In the meantime, we will be advancing forest stewardship and fuels reduction activities and considering linkages with nearby trail systems. Thanks to a generous challenge to match all gifts, the League raised more than $4 million for the purchase and stewardship of Red Hill. The funds raised supported the $3.3 million purchase and the estimated $700,000 for project costs and stewardship activities. More than 3,100 League members contributed to the effort, along with significant grants from individuals and The Joseph & Vera Long Foundation, Jerry Martin, The Summer Hill Foundation, the Ted Martin Legacy Fund at the Central Valley Community Foundation, The Conservation Alliance, and the Flora L.

    CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION Divisions of Boating and Waterways, Historic Preservation and Off-Highway Vehicles News Release For Immediate Release Contacts: Jan. 31, 2018 Adeline Yee Ashley Boarman California State Parks Save the Redwoods League (916) 651-8725 (415) 359-2312 California State Parks Begins Study of Fallen, Iconic ‘Tunnel Tree’ in Calaveras Big Trees State Park ARNOLD, Calif. – Marking one year since the famous Pioneer Cabin Tunnel Tree toppled, California State Parks, Save the Redwoods League and Humboldt State University today announced plans to use the fallen sequoia to study the tree’s life history and gather historic climate-related information for the surrounding area. The information will help California State Parks better manage the existing groves of redwood trees. The giant sequoia is the largest tree species in the world, with some trees reaching a diameter of 36 feet. Located within Calaveras Big Trees State Park within a relatively large sequoia grove containing more than 150 specimens estimated to be 2,000 years old, the Pioneer Cabin Tree was one of California’s oldest tourist attractions and a beloved specimen of a rare California native species. A combination of trunk and root decay and storm water runoff appears to have brought the giant sequoia down at its base on January 8, 2017, shattering it and a nearby cedar tree. The Pioneer Cabin Tree stood approximately 205 feet tall and was more than 19 feet in diameter (measured six feet from the ground). “California’s state parks are endowed with globally, nationally and regionally significant natural resources,” said Heather Reith, Senior Environmental Scientist at Calaveras Big Trees State Park.

    CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION Divisions of Boating and Waterways, Historic Preservation and Off-Highway Vehicles News Release For Immediate Release Contact: Jan. 9, 2017 Supervising Ranger Tony Tealdi (209) 229-5625 Heavy Rains Topple Iconic Pioneer Cabin Tree at Calaveras Big Trees State Park SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The Pioneer Cabin Tree, one of California’s oldest tourist attractions and a beloved specimen of a rare California native species, fell Sunday in Calaveras Big Trees State Park. A combination of trunk and root decay and storm water runoff appears to have brought the giant sequoia down at its base, shattering it and a nearby cedar tree. No one was hurt. The trees fell when the trail to the giant sequoia was closed due to a heavy downpour and rising creek. Flowing water and fallen tree branches are current public safety concerns being addressed by state park staff. Almost a foot of rain has fallen at Calaveras Big Trees State Park near Arnold in the last two weeks, with more than three inches falling Sunday. The Pioneer Cabin Tree is one of the best known giant sequoias, which grow naturally only in a few locations on the western slope of the Sierra Nevada. The giant sequoia is the largest tree species in the world, with some trees reaching a diameter of 27 feet. The Pioneer Cabin Tree stood approximately 100 feet tall and was 22 feet in diameter at breast height - this is as it stood in recent times. The tree is located in the North Grove of the state park within a relatively large sequoia grove containing more than 150 specimens roughly 2,000 years old.
