Why Acadia Carriage Roads dries this way
Acadia Carriage Roads sits in the Acadia & Downeast, ME area, on loam soil that drains well over terrain that holds water and dries slowly. Heavy tree cover holds the damp in, so it stays wet longer than the sky overhead would suggest. Whether it’s worth riding comes down to how that ground sheds and holds water after rain. That’s exactly what Loam tracks, hour by hour. At 315 ft, Acadia Carriage Roads rides E-facing ground that catches morning sun, so the surface firms up earlier in the day; the gentle grade, around 2.7° on average, drains slowly enough that low spots stay soft after a storm.
