Landscape Narrative ? Regeneration also in surround "upalnds".;Fortney claims hydrology changed/saturated because of beaver. This stand seems to have high regeneration. Plot revisit by Brian Streets on 6/7/2005: Open sunny evergreen woodland swamp with lots of standing dead Abies and Tsuga. Dominant vegetation: Abies balsamea - Tsuga canadensis / Ilex verticillata - Alnus rugosa / Carex folliculata - Carex gynandra.
