Typically, the surface layer is brown stony loam about I inches thick. The underlying material is white, very strongly calcareous very stony loam to a depth of 60 inches. lncluded with this soil in mapping are small areas of Potts and Ascalon soils on less sloping positions. These areas make up 5 to 15 percent of the map unit. Permeability is moderately rapid, and available water capacity is low. Etfective rooting depth is more than 60 inches. Surface runoff is medium, and the erosiQn hazard is moderate. This soil is used mainly for grazing and wildlife habitat. The native vegetation on this soil is mainly pinyon and Utah juniper. The understory consists mostly of lndian ricegrass, wheatgrass, junegrass, serviceberry, bitter- brush, and big sagebrush. When the understory vegetation deteriorates, grasses almost disappear and forbs and shrubs increase. Proper- ly managing the vegetation maintains.wood production dnd grazing-. Selectively thinning the pinyon and juniper improves understory grazing and provides firewood, posts, and Christmas trees.' This soil is suited to production of pinyon and Utah juniper. lt can produce 9 cords of wood per acre when irees more than 4.5 feet tall reach an average diameter (at one foot) of 5 inches. The low available water capac' ity atfects survival of tree seedlings. Mule deer, chukar, wild turkey, gray squirrel, and cot- tontail rabbit find habitat on this soil.

I TI rl II II tl :l ll I I 37 This complex is in capability subclass Vlle, nonirrigat- ed. 67-Torrlorthente-Rock outcrop complex, steep. This broadly defined unit consists of exposed sandstone and shale bedrock and stony soils that are shallow to moderately deep over sandstone and shale and stony basaltic alluvium. Areas of this complex occur throughout the survey area. The soils and outcrops are moderately steep to very steep. Slope ranges from 15 to 70 percent. Torriorthents make up about 60 percent of this com- plex, and Rock outcrop makes up 25 percent. The Tor- riorthents are on foothills and mountainsides below the Rock outcrop. Torriorthents are generally clayey to loamy and con- tain variable amounts of gravel, cobbles, and stones. The surface is normally covered with stones weathered from the higher-lying Rock outcrop. South of the Colora- do River, stones and cobbles of basalt are on the sur- face. The Rock outcrop is mainly Mesa Verde sandstone and Wasatch shale. Some areas are covered with basal- tic boulders and stones. Small areas of limestone out- crops and exposed gypsum are in the eastern part of the survey area. lncluded in mapping are small isolated areas of llde- fonso, Lazear, Ansari, Gaynor, Tridell, and Nihill soils. These intermittent areas make up 10 to 15 percent of this map unit. This complex is used for limited grazing, wildlife habi- tat, and recreation. Because of the stones on the surface, the Rock out- crop, and the steep slope, this complex is unsuited to crops. The native vegetation includes wheatgrass, bluegrass, lndian ricegrass, needlegrass, bitterbrush, sagebrush, mountainmahogany and an overstory of pinyon and iuni- per. The vegetation should be managed to maintain wood production and limited grazing. Selectively thinning the pinyon and juniper improves grazing and provides fire- wood and posts. Steep slopes, moderate to severe ero- sion hazard, and slow regrowth of trees affgct harvesting and management. Most of this complex is a prime wintering area for deer. Rabbits, coyote, and a few elk also find food and cover on this complex. Gomnunity development is limited by the Bock out- crop, steep slopes, and stoniness.
