The Angelo Coast Range Reserve is located in the Northern Outer California Coast Ranges, in Mendocino County, Northern California. [1] The 7,660-acre reserve includes a section of the Eel River.

Heath and Marjorie Angelo bought the property in 1931 and sold the land to The Nature Conservancy in 1959. In 1989, an agreement with the University of California incorporated the property into the University of California Natural Reserve System.[1] The reserve is affiliated with departments at the University of California, Berkeley.

The riparian zone of the Eel River is home to many interesting species, including the tailed frog.
