Latitude	37.8284616775239 º
Longitude	-120.400879245156 º
Author Location	Red Hills, Tuolomne County
Location Narrative	The stand is located in the NE portion of the Red Hills ACEC, east of Poor Man's Gulch. The stand is 20 m west of the ridge road, about 800 m south of where the road intersects with two other roads near a hillside with heavy Adenostoma fasciculatum cover. The stand was chosen because of the presence of Adenostoma mixed with the Ceanothus cuneatus that otherwise dominates the Red Hills landscape.; The stand has probably not been burned as recently as adjacent stands because of the presence of Adenostoma, and the larger size of the Ceanothus. The stand was grazed by cattle for about two weeks in March 2005.
