Author Location ? Semitropic Ridge
Location Narrative ? Stand peters out to east into scattered saltbush at around 1% until it dissappears into annual grassland. To west at fence/road begins a stand of Suaeda. Stand is an open saltbush scrub on broad minor convexity and with mounding at each of the shrubs. Shrubs are various ages from seedlings to mature and decadent. Understory herb cover is sporadic occurring around shrubs and where microtopography varies. Stand begins around 110 m south of ag land and continues in length for 150m to S and in width around 50 m E and W of GPS point. Small animal trail criss-cross the stand.
