How we check ourselves

How these factors affect drying

SoilGravelly loam

CanopyPartial 46%

Partial tree cover suggests a mix of sun and shade. Local exposure and surface conditions can vary across the network.

TerrainModerate

Moderate terrain slope is one input to the drying model. Local drainage also depends on soil and trail construction.
