Location Narrative |
Hathaway Ranch is a Shasta Land Trust easement property. This stand consists of a small patch of native annual grasses and forbs on a shallow, rocky substrate, on the top and side of a hill, making up part of a larger California Annual Grassland complex. The stand is about 50 square meters, and all of the annuals are dead at this point (which will make their cover seem low). This area is grazed moderately to heavily.
