Field Notes

Description:

I found many manzanita plants with berries on the Inaja trail, just outside Julian. Nice to see the regrowth since the fire in 2003. I think this could be pink-bract manzanita (Arctostaphylos pringlei spp. drupacea), but I'm not sure without the blooms.

Notes:

From the REI site: Nearly everything you see in that direction was burned in the 2003 Cedar Fire, but the landscape is quickly recovering. At 3440 feet elevation, the overlook is often just above a temperature inversion that traps cooler, moist air below
