Notes | <coords cont.: NE1/4, S8 SE1/4>; Narrow creek bottom with some small open sandy areas. Mostly of narrow cliffs of fresh calving sedimentary shale and sandstone. Some places have higher grassy benches, with some deep soils. Plenty signs of cattle tracks, but didn't see any of them. Manager workers had cut down the Tamarix ramosissima to the base, but starting to sprout back. This species looked to be pretty thick before the treatment. Distichlis spicata has large carpets within creek bottom too. Surrounding grassy hillsides were already pretty brown at this time. But some forbs especially Phacelia tanacetifolia, Trifolium willdenovii, Castilleja exserta, Lupinus succulentus, Stylomecon heterophylla, Pholistoma membranaceum, and Layia pentachaeta albida were colorful. Growing on dry, sandy benches. Lavender flowers.; |
