Author Location	Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area
Location Narrative	Honeybee. Some drought stress. Very thick, lots of standing dead. Rapid Assessment of this area was incorrect. Roadcut has 3312 plants but most of the polygon is purely purple sage. Difficult to enter so first group missed it. Actually is pure Salvia leucophylla, 'old growth' and not very diverse.
