Author Location	Miwuk Indian Reservation, Jackson Rancheria
Location Narrative	Jackson Rancheria in Amador County: Stand of very large Arctostaphylos viscida and multi-stemmed Quercus wislizeni of equal height. The manzanitas are so large it is possible to walk in the understory! There is very little herbaceous vegetation and a high cover of litter. The stand seems to transition into a pure Arctostaphylos viscida stand downslope.
