Observation Narrative	A chestnut oak - scarlet oak / mountain-laurel stand on a dry ridge slope above an extensive acidic cove complex. This stand has probably been fire-suppressed for an extended period, and contains little to no oak recruitment. Red maple and sapling white pine have abundantly invaded the understory and represent future canopy-replacement species in the continued absence of disturbance.
