Observation Narrative	The plot was positioned on the steepest, least disturbed portion of a low, rocky slope bordering Cressy Creek. A large cave (Robert's Cave), much used by recreational cavers, is located adjacent to the plot area. To the southeast is the Mount Rogers Work Center for Appalachian Trail/National Forest trail maintenance crews and the only known station of the endemic tree Betula uber. Plot located ca. 1.2 mi SE of Sugar Grove.
