Location Narrative |
This is a dense mixed oak and pine stand with a very dense, mature Arctostaphylos subcanopy, and sparse herbaceous cover. The oak and pine trees are middle-aged and young (this seems to be a young stand in general). The management history is unknown, but this hillside was probably cleared or burned between 30-80 years ago.

Observation Narrative |
I only assessed the top (southern-most edge) of the stand, as it was impenetrable.
