Plot ID Fields:
Author Plot Code	103-COWP-0012
Author Observation Code	103-COWP-0012
Location Fields:	MAP: Google \| Yahoo \| TopoZone \| MapQuest
Location Accuracy	25 m
Confidentiality Status	exact location
Latitude	35.1325673717638 º
Longitude	-81.8050797495138 º
Location Narrative	Conduit will be hard to find in this area due to honeysuckle dominance. Conduit placed 1 m to S of a 3-trunked small Diospyros in the middle of the old field (tag #32). To get there, take loop road to entrance road to Scrugg's house. Park at loop. Walk back N along Scrugg's Road about 30 m, then walk to old field/short tree mess for about 33 m to get to plot. Vegetation plot extends S from conduit 40 m and N 10 m.

Landscape Narrative	Environmental_Comments: Very heavy exotics presence with lots of Lonicera japonica overtopping plants. Past land use must have been intensive - still very low-statured trees around.
