(cont.): 1/3 in this belt — almost pure stands on all S.-facing slopes which are sufficiently recovered from fire. canothus cuneatus " foliolosa " (integririus?) { species identified by others. ~ partly... C. cuneatus common on protected higher slopes. others fewer (or not noted). cercocarpus betuloides — frequent on higher protected (but fairly recently burned) slopes & canyons. Umbellularia californica — frequent on N.-facing slopes where it is coming up thru chaparral on areas appar. ently burned over about 7-10 years ago. Pinus tuberculata — very few stands in the whole region; biggest one (w. of Scott Creek) was burned in big fire last year.

It is certainly fairly accessible & has all stages of growth of chaparral — and in large chunks, too! Complete list of birds & mammals seen on the ranch, tabulated by vegetation types, follows:
