Confidentiality Status ? exact location
Latitude ? 38.2649114396438 º
Longitude ? -120.814061872912 º
Author Location ? Pardee Lake, Calaveras County
Location Narrative ? Pardee Lake. The stand is located in the McAfee Gulch southeast of the lake. The plot is a diverse stand of multi-strata shrubs (considering the buckeye and interior live oak as shrubs here). The plot was chosen to be representative of what is really a long heterogeneous stand along the intermittent stream in McAfee Gulch. The plot partially straddles the creek at one end, but mostly comprises the west bank of the stream.; The site was burned about five years ago, and the shrubby dominant species might develop into more of a woodland with time.
