Observation Narrative	This plot is similar to GDNF003 but straddles the narrow crest of Shenandoah Mountain, has a more closed canopy, a denser understory dominated by Ostrya virginiana, and lower herb cover. Coarse woody debris from several old blow-downs is present in parts of the plot. Fire, wind, and (probably) past livestock grazing have been factors in the development of this stand. Soil calcium is extraordinarily high.
