Soil and terrain at Wilder Ranch
Wilder Ranch is a mountain bike trail network in Bay Area, CA. Soil data at the sampled location is classified as loam. Terrain data indicates an elevation of about 233 ft, an average terrain slope of 3.8° and a predominant SSW-facing aspect. Terrain slope does not measure the trail tread or its drainage features. Trails here include Engelsman Loop Trail, Cowboy Loop Trail and Wild Boar 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 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.
CanopyPartial 52%
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.
