Location Narrative	The Selaginella stand is very extensive. It pretty much is the ridgetop of Balconies & Crowley Towers. The actual ridgetop just drops off. The stand slopes up a slope of 20 degrees to the actual ridgetop. There are a few CA buckwheats & Pinus sabinianas scattered throughout the stand. May be a Selaginella - Lichen Alliance. Microtopography 04 = stairs or undulating. The plot is located toward the top of the homogenous stand. The low plants are definitely past peak & require forensic botany. The plot is between the ridgetop to Balconies & Crowley Towers. There are animal trails going through the plot.
