| Location Narrative |
Leininger Ranch is an easement of The Nature Conservancy. A tall dense shrub stand on the N-facing banks just above Deer Creek, dominated primarily by shrubs but with a consistent presence of Fraxinus as well as a diversity of other shrubs and small trees (poison oak, clematis, buckeye, interior live oak, juniper, etc). The herb layer is sparse but dominated by native grasses and forbs.

Medium confidence on the cover estimates because I was unable to navigate through stand (dense stand grades into adjacent poison oak and interior oak stand).
