Author Location	Ciervo-Panoche Natural Area
Location Narrative	Stunted dispersed stand of Allenrolfea occidentalis. Area has been heavily trampled by cattle and Allenrolfea occidentalis looks very impacted. Heavy alkaline soils with little other diversity besides Frankenia salina and others herbs. Stand is long and narrow about 1-2 acres in size. Presence of shrub decadence and little mortality. Ponding upstream is affecting stand size.
