Author Location	Deer Creek Hills
Location Narrative	The stand is located in the NE corner of Deer Creek Hills, 1/2 mile north of a stock pond (20 deg. NNE) in the saddle of two low hillocks (the whole landscape is low-rolling hillocks). The area has a high proportion of native forbs and a low cover of non-native grasses, with a lot of micro-variation in stand type across the landscape. The plot was selected to represent one particularly characteristic assemblage of species.; The site is actively grazed by cattle.
