Observation Narrative	Small barren just southeast of large barren on western face of Buffalo Mountain. Conditions are extremely dry late in the 2004 growing season, and considerable senescence of forbs has already occurred, yet ephemeral seepage persists on bedrock outcrops. Numerous apparently or nearly dead stems of Physocarpus opulifolius are present. Elymus hystrix and Liatris were observed outside the plot.
