| Observation Narrative |
Community Description: Hydrologically disturbed (i.e., dry) marl seep with small patches of turfy juniper fen throughout the upper area (where the seeps emerge). This community supports species characteristic of an adjacent marl seep. The lower area is disturbed and dominated by Carex stricta and Epilobium. This community is adjacent to a more intact marl seep, cedar woods and successional forest.
