Location Narrative ? Big Chico Creek ER, California State University Chico: The stand is a mixed canyon live oak and big leaf maple woodland in a steep ravine perpendicular to Big Chico Creek (on the east side). The stand is fairly typical of the canyon live oak stands in the area, but with more Dryopteris and Adiantum in the herb layer. The creek is now dried up.
