Coyote brush and narrowleaf willow stand on side of meadow in SW part of San Joaquin NWR, W of end of Beckwith Rd. and Faith Ranch, and E of Stanislaus River. There is no understory or herbaceous layer, just bare fines and litter. Some areas have more dense branch litter than others. Can't walk into stand much.
