Author Location	Ciervo-Panoche Natural Area
Location Narrative	Stand is dominated by large Artemisia californica with sparse Eriogonum fasciculatum. Plot is at lower hillsope of larger Artemisia californica stand which dominates hillslopes. Large stones; cobble and gravel are throughout stand. Drainage present at southern end of plot and overgrown road is at N end. Artemisia californica may be larger here due to lower slope position and more water.
