Observation Narrative	Habitat is very steep, rocky, convex slope above a SE facing limestone cliff above Jackson River, ca. 0.15 mi north of swinging (suspension) bridge and opposite Muddy Run Hollow. The forest growth here is quite scrubby and somewhat gnarled, but similar vegetation elsewhere on the slope has more normal forest physiognomy. As with many other dry-mesic calcareous forests, floristic diversity is notable despite less than ideal growing conditions.
