Observation Narrative	original plot ID: AA1162, Vegetation type confidence: Keys well. Color and pattern on photo does not look especially like Cercocarpus betuloides - possibly because they're shorter in stature and very uniform in height (the wispiness characteristic is somewhat absent); A band of Ceanothus spinosus running through polygon inclusion; Surveyed stand has an inclusion of Ceanothus spinosus;
