Observation Narrative	Plot located near crest of dry, steep, south-facing slope, in the most open woodland vegetation. The most open woodland supports chlorotic Pinus strobus, suggesting harsh edaphic conditions. A contact zone with shaley bedrock is a few meters north. Hepatica americana, a mesophytic indicator, is present, but quite scarce. The community is best characterized as submesophytic. Liriodendron tulipifera in plot about 33 cm dbh.
