This plot is in a mixed conifer stand with the ground veg dominated by a shrubby oak. The overstory trees are diverse with two Abies, western white pine and brewer's spruce (a rare conifer). No hardwood trees and no cyanolichens. The slope is NW facing at the top of a drainage. Chlorolichen diversity is high probably due to the older stand, diverse conifers, etc. The Biscuit Fire burned around the edges of the plot but no bark scorches were evident in the plot. Slope 35%. Aspect 310°. Abundance code: 2. Spot Tests: med: P-, K-, KC+R.
