?u????ea cambic horizons and in some places weak argillic horizons. Additionally, they have <br />developed secondary accumulations of carbonates. The accumulation of carbonates is reflected <br />in a higher pH in the Bk and Btk horizons. The pH in A, Ap, ABt, Bw and Bt horizons (Lift A <br />averages 7.7 and in the Bk Btk and C horizons (Lift B) averages 8.2. Soil in this map unit is used . <br />primarily for irrigated pasture and hay crop.

Depth to bedrock varies widely in this map unit. Haplaririds with <br />y*ing depths to bedrock form on drainage side slopes. Endoaquepts are formed where irrigation <br />water has accumulated in drainage bottoms. In a few naturally occurring areas of water <br />accumulation Endoaquolls have formed. <br />Eolian sands are intermixed with Cretaceous Dakota and Burro Canyon Formations in map unit <br />98G. Soil is generally moderately deep with significant inclusions of shallow soil on convex slopes. ` <br />Soil salvage in this map unit ma y yield slightly less than predicted. <br />Map unit 98H occurs on mesa side slopes that are not as steep as those found in map unit 98B. <br />Hardness of bedrock varies depending on the underlying strata. Wahweap soil has the same. <br />physical and chemical properties as, those soils similarly named in the survey area. Wahweap is <br />outside the range of characteristics compared to the survey area, in that it occurs in an area of 7 <br />inches mean annual precipitation. <br />(Revised June 2008) u 2.04.9-19 <br />szl??-n U???
