  • Habitat

    More-or-less flat-bottomed basin. Slopes recovering from burn of 4-5 years earlier. Mostly chaparral elements on slopes. Of note are dead remains of Juniperus californica throughout the lower portions of the basin which have not survived the fire and do not appear to be regenerating. Basin heavily infested with annual, non-native grasses which may have carried the fire and intensified its effects against the original juniper community. Scattered locally. Cobbly and gravelly sedimentary soil.
