Very long heterogenous fen with marked spots of high diversity and other large weedy zones. Fen elevated on norther and southern margins and depressed near central lakes (2). Bordered on north by woodland as well as on southern edge, but southern edge has a railroad and nearby row-crop agriculture. Typhaspp. appear to be heavily impacting fen. Carex stricta dominated area on moist ground. Phragmites australis beginning to take over. Area surrounded on 3 sides by Toxicodendron vernix and Larix laricina. Other common species include Rhamnus alnifolia, Dasiphora fruticosa, Thelypteris palustris, Solidago altissima, and Betula pumila.
