Soil and terrain at Antelope Island
Antelope Island is a mountain bike trail network in Salt Lake City, UT. Soil data at the sampled location is classified as rocky sandy. Open tree cover can allow more sun and wind exposure, helping drying. Terrain data indicates an elevation of about 4,856 ft, an average terrain slope of 9.5° and a predominant NW-facing aspect. Terrain slope does not measure the trail tread or its drainage features. Loam models conditions across the network; individual trails and constructed surfaces can differ from these environmental inputs. Official closures and conditions on the ground take priority.
How these factors affect drying
SoilRocky sandy
The soil data includes about 46% rock fragments. The model uses this to adjust drainage; it does not measure how quickly every trail section dries. Drying behavior is modeled from the soil classification, not measured directly on the trail.
CanopyOpen 0%
Open tree cover can allow more sunlight and wind to reach the ground. Terrain, weather and trail construction also affect drying.
TerrainSteep
Steeper terrain can encourage runoff. Terrain slope does not measure the trail tread or its drainage features.
