Original Data Location	SAMO NPS Headquarters, 401 West Hillcrest Drive, Thousand Oaks, CA
Location Fields:	MAP: Google | Yahoo | TopoZone | MapQuest
Confidentiality Status	exact location
Latitude	34.1073891992359 º
Longitude	-119.07025282498 º
Author Location	Laguna Peak
Location Narrative	More Opuntia littoralis in west. Everything fully leafed out. More Artemisia californica to west. Difficult to tell Salvia mellifera from Encelia californica from a distance but looks like nearly all of it is Encelia (walking around in east end saw only Encelia californica but saw some Salvia mellifera with binoculars further west). GPS towards east edge. Could be weak 7151 but Rhus integrifolia is low cover. Diverse, not all plants listed.
