Geo-171-2014 Homework #3

During lecture, I was fascinated by the effect of rain on the ecology of either side of a mountain, so I decided to go for a hike on the Northern side of the mountains in Tilden Regional Park. As I hiked about a mile on the North side of the mountain, I saw a plethora of leafed out plants. However, I had a lot of trouble finding any bare plants. I had an equal amount of trouble finding any flowering plants as well. Finally, when I thought the North side of the mountain did not support any flowering plants or they were out of season, I found a shrub with small white flowers growing out of brush.
