Observation Narrative ? Directions to plot: Plot located SE of Burnside Dr. in Spotsylvania. Take Bloody Angle Dr. to Burnside Dr. (one way). Once on Burnside go to second creek crossing. Park on side of road. Plot is South of Burnside Dr. on east slope above creek. Probably acidic oak-hickory with inclusions of mesic-mixed hardwood with Fagus. High Quercus alba regeneration. At base of slope, 15m from creek, on a small convexity between 2 ephemeral drains.
