The Angeles National Reserve

The Angeles National Reserve stretches along all the suburbs north of the city of Los Angeles, including Glendora. It was officially registered on July 1, 1908. Most of the reserve is covered with dense shrubs that replace coniferous and oak forests as they rise above sea level. Its area is about 2,700 square kilometers. In the National reserve of Angeles grow ancient relict plants such as Douglas spruce and California nut. Also in the protected area you can meet Yellow pine, White fir, twisted pine and other species of conifers listed on the endangered list.

There are five sand sediments in the Angeles National Reserve, the most famous of which is Cucamonga Wilderness, which covers an area of about 200 square meters. In August 2009, there was a terrible fire that captured an area of 650 square kilometers. It lasted about a month, as a result, a quarter of the plantings were charred, and many animals were injured. Currently, there are about 22 plant species in the Angeles National Reserve, as well as 23 species of fauna, of which 16 are considered endangered.
