Why Boyce Park dries this way
Boyce Park sits in the Pittsburgh & Western PA, PA area, on loam soil that drains well over terrain that drains at an even, moderate pace. 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 1,178 ft, Boyce Park rides ESE-facing ground that catches morning sun, so the surface firms up earlier in the day; the gentle grade, around 3.3° on average, drains slowly enough that low spots stay soft after a storm.
