This observation was uploaded from NatureServe's Ecological Observations Database (EcoObs), version 24 May 2016. Some data values may be midpoints of EcoObs classes (e.g. stratum height, slope, aspect).
Hemlock and hardwood overstory on a very steep northeast facing slope. Sparse shrub layer and a fern dominated herbaceous layer. Lots of rotting fallen hemlocks and many tipup mounds. There are areas with less overstory cover in patch.
