(30A) Unnamed loam, 0 to 3 percent slopes. <br />• This is a. deep, somewhat poorly drained, moderately fine textured soil <br />developing in mixed alluvium. Slopes are level to nearly level. <br />The very dark brown loam surface layer is about 4 inches thick. The <br />subsoil is in two layers, the upper 6 inches being a black clay loam <br />with medium and fine subangular blocky structure. The lower 4 inches is <br />a dark grayish brown clay loam with medium size blocky structure. The <br />substrata is a dark grayish brown clay and extends to a depth of about <br />60 inches. The soil is mottled and the stains are visible in the soil <br />from about a 4 inch depth on down. <br />Surface runoff is medium and the erosion hazard is moderate. <br />The soil is best suited to grasses since it is wet most of the year. <br />Drainage is necessary but outlets are difficult to establish. All areas <br />mapped are in grass and used for hayland. <br />• <br />(R8D) Winevada-Sp litro complex, 3 to 25 percent slopes. <br />These moderately deep and shallow soils are on gently sloping to moder- <br />ately steep mountain sideslopes. This complex dominates the soils <br />encountered along the ridge dividing Eckman Park and Middle Creek. The <br />area is almost totally covered by aspen although some oak brush is <br />found. <br />The Winevada (53) soils occupy lower sideslopes and concave areas and <br />make up 60 percent of the unit. The Splitro (46) soils occupy upper <br />sideslopes and ridgecrests and make up about 30 percent of the unit. <br />Small •areas•of Coutis fine sandy loam (34) and Unnamed (68) sandy Yoam <br />make up the other 10 percent. <br />• <br />
