The natural vegetation varies with elevation. Pine–oak forest is the predominant at higher elevations in the upper watershed. tropical dry forest grows at middle and low elevations. Much of the original vegetation has been altered by human activity, and there are extensive areas of secondary vegetation, including woodland, shrubland, and savanna, as well as cropland, forest plantation, and livestock pasture.[3]
