62 45 thicket type of vegetation. Parthenocissus quinquefolia , and Vitis cordifolia , Clematis ligusticifolia , and Celastrus scandens are common liamas that cover the low trees and shrubbery with a dense cover of tangled wire - like stems. Rhus trilobata occupies rocky areas by the characteristic colonies of 4 - 10 ft. in diameter. Rhus glabra is abundant on the upper slopes where it exists in the usual thicket association with grasses beneath. Campanula petiolata , Amelanchier alnifolia , Arenaria hookeri , Paronychia jamesii and Orophaca cespitosa one other common Pine Ridge species that were common. Toward the valley of the Sanake and on the lower slopes of the hills on each side of the canyon the Stipa comata association is very conspicuous. This grass covers wide stretches of blow out, less hills back from both sides of the river and sharing the uplands with Andropogon scoparius . There is little Yucca glauca here and not Muhlenbergia purpens was seen anywhere on the uplands. The hills here then are relatively old as compared with those farther east and south.
