Grizzly Creek Redwoods State Park

Grizzly Creek Redwoods State Park is a state park of California, United States, harboring groves of coast redwoods in three separate units along the Van Duzen River. It is located 20 miles south of Eureka, California, then another 17 miles east of Fortuna on State Route 36. The small park was created by a donation from Owen R. Cheatham, founder of Georgia-Pacific Corporation, who wanted to preserve the stand of redwoods in perpetuity. Originally established in 1943, the park has grown to 430 acres. Cheatham Grove, 4 miles west of the main unit, was added to the park in 1983 due to efforts of the Save the Redwoods League. ()
