Observation Narrative	This plot represents the more nutrient rich of the somewhat xeric open forests occupying south to southeast facing gentle to moderate slopes in the shale hills portion of the study area. On richer soil, it occupies steep slopes all the way up to upper slope positions. This may be old growth forest given the age of the white oak cored. Dry conditions presumably have stunted their growth. Plot marked with 4-ft rebar painted white. Plot center ca. 25 degrees NNE of 8-in dbh Pinus virginiana with orange flag, 370 ft north of point on Laurel Branch (and FR 722) 300 ft upstream of confluence with unnamed tributary from south, shown on USGS quad as intermittent watercourse.
