Terrace Escarpments. <br />Terrace escarpments (Te) are on side slopes of old ou•:Wash <br />fans and terraces in the central part of the Area. Soil <br />areas are long and narrow. <br />These areas consist of undifterentiatedshslloW soils that <br />have many cobbles and stones on the surface. In msnc places <br />there is merely a thin layer of cobbles over sandstone or <br />shale. <br />Included in mapping are some deeper soils near the bottom <br />of slopes. <br />Runoff is rapid, and the erosion hszar? is high. Terrace <br />escsrcn=nts take in water slowly, but in places intskc~ of <br />water is influenced b~ tPe amount of stones and cobble- <br />stones on the surface. Only li*~ited moisture is available <br />for plants because these undifferentiated soils are sYisllow. <br />Terrace escarpments is not suited to cultivation. It is <br />used for native range.
