SmugMug > keywords > alvord > 13. Looking along ridge towards Steens Mountain (background). Spiney hopsage/budsage (lighter) and shadscale (darker) plant communities. Not shown: spine hopsage/budsage transitions to big sagebrush/spiney hopsage and then to big sagebrush/bluebunch wheatgrass as soil depth and elevation increase in this area. Also: there are small pockets of black sagebrush within the shadscale plant communities, generally on north facing slopes.
