Observation Narrative	I withhold judgment as to whether this plot represents a community type or a transition. I believe this is a place in which Castanea dentata was a dominant tree. Isotria medeoloides occurrence at plot center. Quercus spp. in plot average about 9 cm dbh. See original plot form for schematic diagram. NOTE: All trees were lumped into the 20-35 m stratum; at least Acer rubrum is probably represented in lower strata as well.
