VEGETATION

Vegplot Text Note(s): 801 Suttle OSD location, OSD veg matches this vegplot relatively well and fits the high water table, SPD ES aspect of 801 (eventually will be its own site). Ephemeral stream channel adjacent to site. Canopy closure is somewhat variable throughout the area As well as overstory composition. Overall should be representative of suttle, also within a suttle consociation, nearby is a good example of mature open Forest, understory re-initiation, if this phase is added in the future. Site index was taken on a nearby site. History of past logging of large trees and more recent thinning of smaller trees evident. May have been mechanically planted; 1/2 mile from suttle pedon but more representative of reference state for 801 site. Same land form and within Suttle consociation, should be representative of SUTTLE soil. Plot spans closed mature forest and small canopy gap. Evidence of some large PIPO logged out previously. Old skid trail in plot
