Observation Narrative	original plot ID: AA0687, Vegetation type confidence: Hard due to seasonality - right now oaks relatively high cover but in reality juglans is dominant. Juglans is bare and skeletal due to decidousness and santa ana winds; Can't see far east end. May be more Heteromeles arbutifolia in unviewed area. Juglans has no leaves, would be 10% cover at least with leaves;
