Comments: Two stages of deterioration in savanna woodland type. Inside the pasture the curlymesquite and grama grass sod has been broken up and snakeweed and white eriogonum plants have gotten a foothold. On the outside the grass is practically gone and there is an increased amount of snakeweed and white eriogonum. The ground between half-shrubs is partially paved with small stones.
