Observation Narrative ? Plot is located just above an extensive boulderfield on a steep, north facing slope of Elliott Knob, 0.25 mi north of fire tower at summit. Compared to the boulderfield, this site has well developed soils that support a dense herbaceous cover dominated by Oclemena acuminata and Athyrium filix-femina var. asplenioides.
