Observation Narrative
Plot location: slope 0.7 miles west of Sumerduck.
This plot is located in one of the larger fragments of older forest in the Phelps WMA (most of the area was cut over within the last few decades). This stand is a well-developed Liridoendron - Quercus spp. Forest that probably regenerated from logging 50 or 60 years ago, possibly more.
