A mistletow-covered valley oak (Quercus lobata) borders the grassland, just beyond Road F. Incipient chaparral lies beyond; coyote brush (Baccharis pilularis) is prominent. Another valley oak is on the ridgeline, joined by several dark-green coast live oaks (Q. agrifolia). The annual European grass is just beginning to turn "California golden" (AKA yellow). The chaparral of the previous images lies just to our right. A panorama from Trail 16, across Road F, looking toward fog-shrouded Skyline. 9:12 am.
