Why Fantasy Island (Tucson, AZ) dries this way
Fantasy Island (Tucson, AZ) (Arizona) rides on rocky sandy soil that drains fast over terrain that holds water and dries slowly. 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 NNE-facing aspect keeps the dirt shaded for much of the day, so moisture lingers after rain and snow is slow to clear, and the nearly flat terrain, about a 1° average grade at 2,818 ft, lets water sit, so the flat stretches are the last to firm up.
