Review:

The canopy is not broken, with very little sunlight shining through. The area is going downhill towards the Elwha River. It is abundant in trees, with most trees having a small circumference, hinting perhaps new growth. Shrubs are well above the knee level and tower over nurse logs. Snags are visible, providing more shelter against sunlight for lower growth.
