Landscape Narrative	See plots USFS.257,258,259,294,296;Sugar maple-hemlock. Often also rhododendron. (Cove; or moderate-high nutrient riparian, moderate energy, colluvial streams). Overstory mostly Tsuga canadensis, Prunus serotina, with other Northern Hardwoods. Diverse forb layer, as well as much Lycopodium. Large number of Prunus serotina seedlings.
Representativeness	Plot data from USFS spreadsheets and shapefiles. Original files on disk and in Plotdata/USFS directory. Numerous taxonomic assumptions made, since taxonomic data consisted only of 4-letter USFS code. Two partial USFS translation sheets for these codes
