Landscape Narrative	This ridge goes down into a saddle where the main road is. A ridge road is ~50 m to the east. Further up and west are oak/heath forests.;This is a mixed oak-hickory forest on a cooler aspect. Not exposed enough to favor any significant heath cover, but not diverse like other oak-hickory forests. There is a lot of down wood, young seedlings and blowdowns.
