How these factors affect drying

SoilOrganic soil

The soil survey describes organic material at this spot, not a mineral soil texture. Without measured water-retention values, the drying model uses a middle estimate for retention. Drying time is less certain; this label alone does not tell you how quickly the trail will dry.

CanopyPartial 53%

A mix of sun and shade. Conditions vary across the network, with open sections drying faster than covered ones.

TerrainSheds water

Water runs off this terrain rather than pooling, which helps the surface dry out after rain.
