Observation Narrative ? Directions to plot: Take Scenic Drive east to North Orenda Rd. (right before Parking Lot D). Turn right onto N. Orenda Rd. - need gate key and park permit. Drive down N. Orenda Rd. and park near where it meets South Valley Trail. Hike on north side of the Creek, heading NE. Plot is located in wide floodplain just north of where Laurel Loop Trail crosses creek (bridge). See form for sketch of plot configuration. Floodplain along South Fork Quantico Creek- near confluence. Plot represents extensive floodplain area along Laurel loop trail. Microstegium is prevalent throughout.
