Observation Narrative	Habitat is a boulder strewn slope supporting forest vegetation heavily dominated by Tilia americana, Fraxinus americana and Parthenocissus quinquefolia. Many fertile site herbaceous plants present here, but overall herbaceous cover is quite limited by the numerous surficial boulders. Plot location: Shenandoah NP. Just west (downslope) of the Lewis Spring Falls trail at a point ca. 0.4 miles north of Lewis Spring Falls. GPS file R072915A is recorded on the plot and the plot map does not indicate that the point was manually changed, but the Method of Determining Location was entered as topo map.
