Soil and terrain at Soldier Wash

Soldier Wash is a mountain bike trail network in Sedona, AZ. Soil data at the sampled location is classified as rocky loam. Terrain data indicates an elevation of about 4,364 ft, an average terrain slope of 3.3° and a predominant WSW-facing aspect. Terrain slope does not measure the trail tread or its drainage features. 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 we check ourselves

How these factors affect drying

SoilRocky loam

The soil data includes about 60% rock fragments. The model uses this to adjust drainage; it does not measure how quickly every trail section dries. Drying behavior is modeled from the soil classification, not measured directly on the trail.

CanopyPartial 27%

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.
