Author Location	San Joaquin National Wildlife Refuge
Location Narrative	In San Joaquin River NWR, SE of Stanislaus River. Road to SE will not be visible on prior photo due to tree cover. Stand is W of cultivated fields and N of the end of Beckwith road. Quite large stand of Acer with a few other tree types intermixed including one large Populus. Trees are dense with low-hanging dead branches, making access difficult, so point was taken a bit W of center. Heavy leaf litter and woody debris. Occasional wetness of ground evident by cracks in dried ground. Although north part of stand is a bit drier, there is more Bromus diandrus and understory herbaceous cover. SW of border road, beyond small Fraxinus/Quercus strip, stand repeats but with the addition of some Sambucus.
