Landscape Narrative	The plot is situated on a midslope with a dry creek bed running 200m N. The plot is 500m from Pigeonroost Run.;A gully deeply cuts through the middle of the plot and runs downhill. The overstory is diverse with a slight dominance of beech but including a large red oak, sugar maple and basswood. The T3 and S1 is also dominated by beech and herb layer is fairly thin with a preponderance of christmas fern.
Representativeness	Plot was placed to capture stand of large beech and basswood on midslope transition from xeric oak / ericad upper slope to more mesic low slope on N facing hill.
