How we check ourselves

How these factors affect drying

SoilOrganic soil

The soil survey describes organic material at this spot, not a mineral soil texture. The drying model uses surveyed water-retention values. Organic soils vary in how they drain, so this label alone does not tell you how quickly the trail will dry.

CanopyDense 86%

Heavy tree cover shades the soil and blocks wind, so these trails dry slowly and can hold morning damp even after dry days.

TerrainModerate

Terrain here drains at a moderate pace. It neither sheds nor holds water strongly.
