Why Brushy Creek Regional Park dries this way
Brushy Creek Regional Park sits in the Austin, TX area, on gravelly clay soil that drains fast over terrain that holds water and dries slowly. With little tree cover, sun and wind get to the dirt fast. 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. The terrain here is nearly flat (a 1° average grade at 830 ft) and lets water sit, so the flat stretches are the last to firm up, while the ENE-facing aspect catches morning sun, so the surface firms up earlier in the day.
