Stands occur as inclusions in other riparian vegetation mostly on small streams. Substrate is coarse-textured loam. Ground cover is a mixture of litter (41%), bare ground (13%), vegetation (11%), pavement (11%), and rock (24%). The vegetation is characterized an open tree canopy dominated by Populus fremontii with Pinus monophylla and Juniperus osteosperma trees often present. The moderately dense to dense shrub layer is dominated by Salix geyeriana. Occasional Artemisia tridentata may be present. The herbaceous layer of sampled stands was dominated by the exotic annual grass Bromus tectorum.
