The <br />bench area is approximately five to ten feet above the level of the nearby <br />intermittent drainage and consists of partially consolidated outwash materials. <br />Vegetation in the surrounding undisturbed areas is dominated by the <br />transitional pinon-pine, juniper community. Some volunteer vegetative <br />reestablishment has occurred in existing disturbance areas with grasses, (orbs <br />and low shrubs dominant. <br />Current and historical land uses for this area are similar and include rangeland, <br />wildlife habitat and mining.
