Location Narrative |
This stand is found along the lake margin off a fishing recreation trail slightly below a point where a creek runs into the reservoir (the reservoir may now cover what used to be a riparian area, accounting for the presence of Quercus lobata). This is a mixed oak stand on a steep slope with an understory of weedy exotics and burned Ceanothus cuneatus. There was a fire upslope from the stand which probably extended into the stand and killed the Ceanothus cuneatus, and maybe burned the litter, but did not affect the oaks.
