Sierra de La Asamblea

The Sierra de La Asamblea, also referred to as San Luis, Sierra de Yuba, or Sierra de Jubai, is an isolated mountain range in Baja California. The range reaches a height of 1,661 metres, and is separated from southernmost end of the Sierra de San Pedro Martir by over 146 kilometres. This mountain range harbors a large number of disjunct species, including the southernmost distribution of Pinus monophylla, and a large chamise chaparral. The sierra is within a federally designated protected natural area, the Valle de los Cirios.
