These soils are deep excessively-drained soils on sandy plains. <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />Typically they have a light-colored sandy surface layer, Al horizon, less <br /> <br />than 7 inches thick. The substratum, 10-40 inch layer, C horizon, is a <br /> <br />light-colored sandy material.' Permeability is rapid: effective rooting <br /> <br />de~th is 40-60 inches. Available water capacity is low; surface runoff is <br /> <br />slow; wind erosion hazard is high. <br /> <br />Sedimentation yield from this association is 0.1-0.2 acre-feet/square <br /> <br />'.' <br /> <br />mile/year.' These soils are used mainly for range and wildlife. General <br /> <br />vegetative type is bitterbush. <br /> <br />Reclamation potential is fair due to <br /> <br />droughtiness. <br /> <br />. , <br />, <br />, <br /> <br />lnceptisols <br /> <br />Pergelic Cryumbrepts, sketetal-Pergelic Cryochrepts, skeletal-Rock <br /> <br />Association, Association 1147, (21,720 acres) <br /> <br />,. <br /> <br />This association consists of sloping to steep soils on high mountain <br /> <br />,. <br />" <br /> <br />ridges and peaks (8-25+ p'ercent slopes).
