In the woods at the Escobar Gate end of Trail 15 south of the first meadow, and in shady margins north of the exclosure, Road E south of Trail 7, 50 yards south of Hillside Lab on Trail 7 growing with the Erigeron foliosus, and the small meadow uphill near the end of Trail 2. A grass of open woodland and woodland margins, it is occasional and widely spread, usually only a few plants together. Inflorescence is similar in appearance to Deschampsia elongata.
