Location Narrative |
Small, open ephemeral stream, dominated by herbs and grasses, especially Mimulus glaucescens. Streambed is solid volcanic mud. Occasional blue oak hangs over stand but are not rooted in it. Stand is surrounded by volcanic mud mounds and vernally wet grassland. This stream stand flows N to S and drains into larger ephemeral steam from previous stand, which in turn, drains into Big Chico Creek. Stand boundaries are within stream only and do not include the banks.
