Terrain & soilCrockett Hills (Bay Area, CA) rides on clay soil that holds water over terrain that drains at an even, moderate pace. With little tree cover, sun and wind get to the dirt fast. Loam reads that exact ground against live weather, rather than leaning on a regional forecast that can’t tell you what the dirt is doing. The terrain here is rolling (a 5.6° average grade at 203 ft) and drains steadily rather than pooling, while the NNW-facing aspect keeps the dirt shaded for much of the day, so moisture lingers after rain and snow is slow to clear. Named trails in this network include Soaring Eagle Trail, Sugar City Trail and Edwards Loop Trail.

How these factors affect drying
SoilClay
Dense clay holds moisture and stays slick the longest. It needs the most drying time before it’s worth riding.
CanopyOpen 17%
Little tree cover means full sun and wind, so these trails are among the fastest to rebound after rain.
TerrainModerate
Terrain here drains at a moderate pace. It neither sheds nor holds water strongly.
