This video is about Headwaters Reserve Elk River Trail, California. The State of California plus the Federal Government came up of $480,000,000.00 to save the property from someone who wanted to cut the trees. The Headwaters Forest Reserve was established in 1999 after a decade-long grassroots effort to protect the world's last unprotected, intact old-growth redwood forest ecosystem. Several threatened species call Headwaters home, including coho salmon, the northern spotted owl and the marbled murrelet. Deep in the heart of the Headwaters old-growth forest are the beginnings or headwaters of the South Fork Elk River and Salmon Creek. This is how the area got its name.
