Name: Pinus ponderosa - Juniperus occidentalis / Artemisia tridentata - Purshia tridentata Woodland Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019 Description: This is a woodland association found in the Blue Mountains and eastern Cascades from Oregon and northern California. Stands include all aspects and slopes, with elevations ranging from 1370 to 1830 m (4500-6000 feet) in elevation. Sites are on basalts, andesite or colluvium, with very stony or shallow soils. In the southern Cascades, these woodlands are often on pumice. They are codominated by <i>Juniperus occidentalis</i> and <i>Pinus ponderosa</i>. Tall shrubs, including <i>Artemisia tridentata (ssp. tridentata, ssp. wyomingensis</i>, and <i>ssp. vaseyana</i> all are reported from stands of this type), <i>Purshia tridentata</i>, and <i>Cercocarpus ledifolius</i> are always present. Generally, <i>Purshia</i> or <i>Artemisia</i> are codominant, although only one or the other can be present.
