Review:

The canopy is broken, with some sun breaks. Holding very few standing trees or snags, the area contains mostly nurse logs and shrubs. The standing trees are scarce in branches, but possess hair-like moss. The under story is very green with few colorful flowers and/or berries. There are many decomposing nurse logs on the wilderness floor that may fall apart easily upon any substantial amount of weight. The floor contains random slopes and pits.
