Location Narrative	BLM Parcels in Butte County, east and southeast of Paradise: This is a mature stand of dense Quercus kelloggii and Pseudotsuga menziesii canopy with a much lower understory of Heteromeles arbutifolia and Toxicodendron diversilobum. The stand spans the top of a ridge and the N and E facing hillsides directly down from the ridge. The ridgetop part of this survey has lots of dead Heteromeles arbutifolia debris. The slope steepness varies greatly throughout the stand.
