Author Location ? EBMUD property, S of Camanche Reservoir
Location Narrative ? GPS point taken toward E edge of stand a couple of meters (5-10 m) below ridge of hills. Stand appears to continue on N-facing slope as well. Stand in EBMUD property, S of Camanche Reservoir. Stand is a long narrow swath running E-W along S facing slope of hill. It is bordered by a 'skirt' of Ceanothus cuneatus at base of hill to S of stand. Chamise is very dense especially at S edge of stand with sparse spacing annual understory layer. Litter is mostly dead chamise branches. Hill has many large ant colonies.
