Soil and terrain at Ute Valley Park

Ute Valley Park is a mountain bike trail network in Colorado Springs, CO. Soil data at the sampled location is classified as sandy. Open tree cover can allow more sun and wind exposure, helping drying. Terrain data indicates an elevation of about 6,467 ft, an average terrain slope of 2.7° and a predominant ESE-facing aspect. Terrain slope does not measure the trail tread or its drainage features. Trails here include Ute Valley Regional Trail, Black and Blue Loop and Rockrimmon 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 we check ourselves

How these factors affect drying

SoilSandy

Sandy soil generally allows water to drain readily. Rainfall, shade and trail construction also affect recovery. The model uses surveyed water-retention values, not measured trail recovery times.

CanopyOpen 22%

Open tree cover can allow more sunlight and wind to reach the ground. Terrain, weather and trail construction also affect drying.

TerrainGentle

Gentle terrain can allow water to linger, but slope alone does not establish whether water pools on a trail.
