Introduction:

The Middle elevations ranges from 700 to 1200 meters and is the habitat of numerous unique species of plants. The Mid-elevations contains evergreen forests and in it's understory contains plants that thrive in wet, shady areas where the air is a bit thinner and the temperature changes more drastically.

The forest of middle elevations is much like that of any forest. Here though, cedars are not the giants, usually hemlocks tower over the other trees. Stands of mountain alders also are a common mid-elevation forest.
