Observation Narrative ? Habitat is a relatively dry, warm, convex slope supporting a rather poor northern hardwood forest. Fagus grandifolia is the overwhelming woody dominant and Carex lucorum var. austrolucorum the herbaceous dominant in this and many other habitats of the Mount Rogers region. Plot located on SSW-facing lower slope along a tributary of Cabin Creek, just north of the Cabin Creek loop trail and 0.4 mi WSW of the Massie Gap parking area.
