STAND DESCRIPTION:

(Please be thorough – e.g. how dense is the stand; are there old white pine, whitecedar, or American elm stumps; recent perturbations; contrast what the stand is compared to what it wants to be; soil conditions; slope; homogeneity vs heterogeneity of stand; is balsam fir a surrogate for northern whitecedar; is it ecological disjunct from target rich surrounding stands; does it have transition zones; TEUI/NPC; etcetera)
