Location Narrative |
This is a large, dense stand of chaparral, mostly dominated by Adenostoma fasciculatum, but with some Arctostaphylos viscida present throughout. There are also some dispersed clumps of Pinus sabiniana consisting of 3-5 mature trees each. The stand as I'm considering it is quite large with indistinct boundaries (might be more than one stand.). This might be serpentine or some ultramafic soil. The herbaceous cover is mostly around the edges.
