Soil and terrain at Raging River
Raging River is a mountain bike trail network in Seattle & Snoqualmie, WA. Soil data at the sampled location is classified as loam. Dense tree cover can reduce sun and wind exposure, slowing drying. Terrain data indicates an elevation of about 2,343 ft, an average terrain slope of 6.8° and a predominant WSW-facing aspect. Terrain slope does not measure the trail tread or its drainage features. Trails here include Return Policy, No Service and People's Elbow. 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.
CanopyDense 83%
Dense tree cover can reduce sunlight and wind at ground level, slowing drying. Its effect depends on weather and local openings.
TerrainModerate
Moderate terrain slope is one input to the drying model. Local drainage also depends on soil and trail construction.
