Soil and terrain at Lory State Park
Lory State Park is a mountain bike trail network in Colorado. Soil data at the sampled location is classified as loam. Terrain data indicates an elevation of about 5,509 ft, an average terrain slope of 3.7° and a predominant NE-facing aspect. Terrain slope does not measure the trail tread or its drainage features. Trails here include Timber Trail, Howard Trail and West Valley Trail. Loam models conditions across the network; individual trails and constructed surfaces can differ from these environmental inputs. Official closures and conditions on the ground take priority.
How these factors affect drying
SoilLoam
Loam combines drainage with water retention. Soil type alone does not establish how long this network takes to dry. The model uses surveyed water-retention values, not measured trail recovery times.
CanopyPartial 25%
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.
