.~ <br /> <br />6. Neville-Nederland-Rizozo area <br />~. <br />Deep and shallow, gently sloping to moderately steep, well drained soils. <br />They formed in residuum from red sandstone, limestone, and cobbly and <br />gravelly alluvium. <br />This soil area is in the southwestern part of the survey area and <br />occupies about 3 percent of the total acreage. About 25 percent ie <br />Neville soils, 15 percent Nederland soil and about 10 percent Rizozo soil. <br />The remaining $0 percent is soils of minor extent. <br />The Neville soil is deep and has a fine sandy loam surface layer and <br />loam substratum. The Nederland soil has a high content of gravel and <br />cobble. The Rizozo soil is shallow over red sandstone bedrock. <br /> <br />The minor soils in this area are the well drained Penrose, Manuel, <br />Satanta, Stroupe, and Travessilla soils. <br />Most of this soil area is used for grazing livestock, wildlife habitat, <br />woodland, and for military maneuvers. About 8$ percent of the soil area <br />is on the Fort Carson Military Reservation. About half of the area is <br />in Pinon-Juniper type vegetation. There is a very small acreage of <br />cropland because of the limited precipitation. <br />,` <br /> <br />~7 <br />
