Author Location	Denny Ranch, Tehama County
Location Narrative	Stand is located on the southern portion of the north property of the Denny Ranch, just south of a large stock pond and NW of the gas line. Substrate consists of red/brown soil with low litter cover and high stone cover. Dominant herb species are Lasthenia californica and Layia fremontii, with significant cover of Blennosperma nanum. This stand is in the upland portion of an annual forb-dominated system of upper rocky mounds and lower, wetter swales with considerable standing water.; This site is obviously grazed as there are cows present in the field. This field has been burned sometime in the past 1-5 years.
