DRAFT <br /> 11-77, AP, AEA <br /> XOF--Cu•rulic Cryoborolls, Loear,�, i.early Level to Gentle Fbpir.7 <br /> ' This is a deep, u*derately well drained, gravelly loamy soil on narrb-r <br /> floodplairs, drainage ways, and valley bottoms of the mountains. It formed <br /> ' in stratified, noncalcareouc, loamy allul6isl materials. Average annucl <br /> precipitation is 19 to 24 inches, and mean annuel air temperature is 41 to <br /> 43° F. Frost free season is less than 75 days, and elevationa range from <br /> 7000 to 9200 feet. Slopes are nearly level to gently sloping (0-5 percent). <br /> ' Included in this unit are areas of deep, well drained soils, Kittredge <br /> and Un (Coca). Also included are Farabdale soils that are poorly drained. <br /> Some =11 areas may also have soils with more than 35 percent rock frag- <br /> ments. Total inclusions are less tban 15 percent of mapping unit. <br /> The soil profile is variable, but mat commonly the surface layer is <br /> a dark grayish brown sandy loam about 7 inches thick, Tho subsoil commonly <br /> is str2tifie: dark -reytFh brown sandy clay Loam with semis of sandy looms <br /> and graNT ly sandy looms with 5 to 10 percent cobbles throughout the pro- <br /> file, extending to 60 inches or more. <br /> Permeability is moderate, and available water capacity is high. <br /> ' Effective rootin- depth is more than 60 inches. Surface runoff is slow, <br /> and erosion bazard is slight. Shrink-awell potential commonly is slight. <br /> This soil is subject to occasional flood hazard caused by runoff from <br /> ' steeper adjoining sideslopee. DurirC peak runoff :ariods the water table <br /> may rise to within 40 inches of the surface. <br /> This soil ie used for grazing, hayland, recreation, wildlife habitat <br /> ' and limited urban development. <br /> Plant Adaptation - Lawns and ornamental plantings may be difficult to <br /> ' establish due to the colder climate. Climatically adapted plants should <br /> be selected, and care should be taken to maintain native vegetation. <br /> Co=anity Development - The rrivary limitation to the building of local <br /> roads and houses are occasional flooding and seasonally fluctuating*, water <br /> table. Elevated structures are effective to allow free flow of water during <br /> peal: periods. <br /> 1 <br /> Capability Subclass: IYw. <br /> ' Overflow Pargee Site. <br /> u;{drolor is Group: E. <br />
