Observation Narrative	Directions to plot and tree tag: Rocky Knob Picnic area, first parking lot to the left. Take blue/yellow blazed trail to mowed sewer line right-of-way. Go to "pump" house up right-of-way to left (#10). From pump house go W -50m crossing quartz cobble bottomed stream, across ravine bottom to tagged tree - flagged pink. Plot location was pre-selected by the project's stratified random sampling design. Tagged tree is a Quercus alba of 103cm dbh with tag# 491. Conduit is at a bearing of 330 degrees and -28m from tree. Flat bottom with perennial seepage, formerly with large hemlock (now standing dead). Two main streams running through rocky/gravelly bottom. Dense, patchy Rhododendron maximum. Scattered Magnolia fraseri, Lindera benzoin, Ilex montana. Herb cover sparse - mostly Viola and fern. Bryophyte cover on rocks and logs.
