| Location Narrative |
The site is located 1/4 mile southeast of the main county road, near the north boundary of the property. The plot is located on a table-like plateau of shallow soil volcanic mudflow, surrounded by open blue oak woodland of which the oaks are barely leafing out. Cover in the plot is dominated by Lasthenia californica and Vulpia microstachys. The plot is rather cobbly and there is some standing water, and also flowing water which is mostly covering bare soil.; No evidence of fire or knowledge of fire history. The grazing impact is relatively high, plants are stunted and obviously grazed. There are cows present in this area.
