Observation Narrative	original plot ID: AA0519, Vegetation type confidence: Adenostoma fasciculatum alliance in northwestern 1/4 (rockier). All assessed. High confidence. Ceanothus spinosus in drainage and on one edge of polygon but scattered in polygon a little also. Mimulus aurantiacus throughout. Ideally would be Ceanothus spinosus - Cercocarpus betuloides - Mimulus aurantiacus so 2090 best fit;
