Description: This open woodland association is known from the Applegate Ranger District of the Rogue River National Forest but may also be on neighboring Districts in Oregon, and may occur in northern California. Stands occur at elevations of 1860-1980 m (6110-6500 feet) on northeast, east, and south aspects on upper slopes and ridge tops. Slopes range 24-66%. Soil information is lacking. Pinus monticola dominates the upper tree canopy with 10% cover. Abies X shastensis and Abies concolor may be present with 2% and 1% cover, respectively. Xerophyllum tenax clearly dominates the herbaceous layer with about 73% cover. Minor associates include Achillea millefolium (1%) and Carex spp. (2%).
