Landscape Narrative	This plot is in an area between the hillside (Acer saccharum/Aesculus flava) and the creekside communities (Platanus occidentalis/Carex torta).;This is a fairly long flat area that is elevated away from Glade Creek. It is between the creek and where the hill starts going up.
Representativeness	This plot is typical of these flat areas that are in wider parts of the Glade Creeks valley. The canopy is almost completely dominated by Liriodendron tulipifera.
