Description: Shrublands dominated by Salix eastwoodiae occur in subalpine habitats above 2300 m in the northern Rocky Mountains. Salix eastwoodiae dominates a low to medium height (1-2 m) shrub layer with lesser amounts of Salix planifolia and Lonicera caerulea. Carex utriculata is always present. The shrublands create broad open meadow/willow mosaics and may occur at the mouths of tributaries and in oxbows associated with forested habitat. Soils are saturated at or near the surface through mid-summer.  Accession Code: VB.CC.26976.SALIXEASTWOODIA Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
