Observation Narrative	Plot located north of Green Pond, ca. 15 m south of main jeep road and downslope of plot GPNF711. 2 vegetative Carex polymorpha shoots within 3.5 m. radius. Judging by the presence of Vaccinium corymbosum, Rhododendron catawbiense and a lower slope position, soils appear to be more mesic than soils in plot GPNF709. Aged and measured trees: Quercus montana, tag #155, 23.9 cm. dbh, 55 years old; Pinus rigida, tag #144, 16.6 cm. dbh, 44 years old. This is plot 2 in burn unit 1 (plot 1-2) of a study of Rx fire effects on Carex polymorpha. Tree data are with the original plot form, but still need to be entered.
