Map Satellite Here the Santa Ana River makes a sharp bend and has formed a comparatively broad alluvial plain which supports an excellent riparian community, one of the better examples along the well-channeled river. In this rather dense vegetation, sycamore, Platanus racemosa, and white alder, Alnus rhombifolia, form a woodland near the river, with coast live oak, Quercus agrifolia, intergrading. There is a variety of animal life in the area. Integrity: There are some dirt roads as well as a picnic ground in the area; however, the vegetation is in very good condition. Use: Research, educational, observational, present. March 1977
