Mountain brush is a plant community or vegetation type of the Colorado Plateau and Canyonlands region. It covers large parts of the mountain foothills and shaded canyons in areas below the Ponderosa pine community. It is characterized by dominance by shrubby Gambel's Oak ("Quercus gambelii"), Utah serviceberry ("Amelanchier utahensis"), sagebrush ("Artemisia tridentata"), and mountain mahogany ("Cercocarpus montanus").
