Soil and terrain at White Ridge Bike Trails

White Ridge Bike Trails is a mountain bike trail network in Santa Fe & Taos, NM. The soil data identifies rock substrate at the sampled location. Open tree cover can allow more sun and wind exposure, helping drying. Terrain data indicates an elevation of about 5,834 ft, an average terrain slope of 0.3° and a predominant W-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

SoilRock substrate

The soil survey identifies bedrock at this point rather than a mineral soil texture. The drying model uses a middle estimate because rock exposure varies across a trail network.

CanopyOpen 0%

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.
