Armstron Redwoods State Reserve and surroundings, located in Guerneville, California
The park preserves 3.3 km² of the Coast Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens). Coast redwoods are classified as temperate rain forests and they need wet and mild climates to survive. The rainfall in Armstrong Redwoods averages 55 in/year (1.4 m/year), almost all from September through June and predimonantly in winter. Additionally, the trees are often shrouded in fog, particularly during June through September, otherwise a dry season with little or no rain. This fog helps to maintain the moist conditions needed for the redwoods to survive during the summer.
