Observation Narrative	One of the most fertile slopes seen in the Mount Rogers area. Supports a medium age second growth sugar maple dominated forest with a rich herbaceous layer, including an abundance of two rare southern Appalachian endemics. While not old growth, this community is a fine example of this type. Plot located 0.1 mi southwest of Rt. 600 at Elk Garden in small concavity on slope just west of Appalachian Trail. Acer saccharum in plot, 51 cm dbh.
