Observation Narrative ? Plot located in stand of large Acer saccharum, ca. 40 m west of "Blue Trail" in a gentle, boulder-strewn hollow. Some seasonal flooding takes place in this bouldery hollow, as evidenced by water sorted deposits of leaves. The canopy is quite open as a result of ice damage to the limbs of sugar maples. Measured tree in plot (dbh in cm.): Acer saccharum (82).
