Location Narrative	This stand is most likely a result of the disturbance caused by the building of the road (which runs through the stand), and the clearing on both sides of the road. The stand is dominated by Baccharis pilularis, but there are lots of young pines which may signal a future transition to a different type. The stand spans the ridgeline and the top of the N and S facing slopes. This stand is just under an acre.
