Why Six Mile Run Reservoir Site dries this way
Six Mile Run Reservoir Site sits in the Central New Jersey, NJ area, on loam soil that drains well over terrain that holds water and dries slowly. Heavy tree cover holds the damp in, so it stays wet longer than the sky overhead would suggest. Whether it’s worth riding comes down to how that ground sheds and holds water after rain. That’s exactly what Loam tracks, hour by hour. The N-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 0.3° average grade at 66 ft, lets water sit, so the flat stretches are the last to firm up.
