Location Narrative	Lots of Dodecatheon clevelandii didn't flower this year and is dying. However, lots did still flower. Could be some Nassella lepida along with Nassella pulchra but there are no seed heads. Lots of last year's Hemizonia fasciculata. Didn't count the dead but there are new shoots too. Rabbit scat. Gopher burrows. Evidence of fire. Nassella and Hazardia thru-out but neither is that dense. Could also be classified as Nassella pulchra alliance. Good bunchgrass stand! Crust on soil and dried out non-vascular plants abundant. Viewed from afar and entered stand. Phalaris is annual type.
