Commentary

Dear Dr. Barbara Coombs,

Thanks for submitting this report. Gorse is a high alert species. I will forward this report to several contacts for invasives in that area.

May I ask how you learned about the hotline?

Thanks,
Tania

Location

Sea Lion Caves: From the main building, walk on the west (ocean) side of Highway 101 to the beginning of the guardrail. The distance is short - maybe 20 or 30 feet past the parking lot area. The plants are within about three feet of the guardrail, just on the other side of the guardrail from the walker's perspective, to the west of the guardrail near the top of the cliff.
