Observation Narrative ? A beautiful, medium-age oak-hickory stand with lush, diverse herb layer and no exotics. Soils collected from this gentle crest are moderately calcareous. Trees are well-formed and none are of sprout origin. This site experienced a significant fire in the distant past, judging from the large quantities of charcoal in the soil humus layer. Fallen boles from two snags on east edge of plot have contributed substantial coarse, woody debris to the surface substrate.
