Landscape Narrative	Just upslope are patches of more stabalized alluvium which support tall herb prairie, and 'successional' sycamore thickets.;More frequently flooded vegetated zone of cobble bar along a flashy river. Stand is across river from bedrock ledges which push floods to this side of river. Plot is dominated by Indian hemp with a few battered or young sycamore. Substrate is multi-sized cobble with wet sand in interfaces, and large buried boulders.
Representativeness	Plot includes entire small patch of cobble bar that is dominated by Apocynum cannabinum. Repeated in scoured back channel and other scoured positions along the Dry Fork. Analagous to Justicia beds, which are absent here?
