Lost Coast League Newsroom - Profile and News Archive

Founded in 1961 as the Mattole Action Committee, the Lost Coast League is a grassroots organization made up of working professionals pledged to protect the public trust resources of this unique area.

Collectively we believe that conserving what is left of our old growth forests — and restoring the vast majority of lands that have already been damaged — is important not only for our local ecosystem, but for the global community as well.

The Lost Coast is home to a vast number of plant and animal species indigenous and only found in the Pacific Northwest. We work closely with board members and consultants from other local non-profit organizations to maintain wildlife values in this region.
