ANALYSIS <br /> 1 <br /> • <br /> TOPOGRAPHY <br /> The topography within Woodland Trails Park is widely varied, from' <br /> the rolling wooded and open uplands to the virtually flat <br /> wetlands . The upland hills are generally 10 to 30 feet high with <br /> slopes ranging from 3% to 35%. The major wetlands occur at about <br /> elevation 940 . 0 ' and relate to the virtually flat creek that <br /> flows into the north edge of the site at elevation 942. 3 ' and out <br /> the south edge at elevation 939. 8' . <br /> SOILS I <br /> There are many different soil types within the park. The various <br /> soils do, however, fall into two general soil associations : I <br /> The first and predominant soil is the Zimmerman-Lino-Isanti-peat <br /> association . The general description of this soil is that I <br /> it occurs on nearly level to undulating topography and is acidic, <br /> windblown and sandy. <br /> The second soil is the Hayden-Braham-Emmert association. This is <br /> an undulating to steep sloped soil over limy, gray glacial till <br /> 411 mixed with red till or gravel , capped with fine sand. The <br /> following map shows the location of these soil associations ' <br /> within the park site. <br /> The following map shows the Woodland Trails site and relevant <br /> soil types as mapped in 1968 by the Soil Conservation Service. <br /> The types are then briefly described with regards to physical ' <br /> characteristics , typical slopes on which they occur, and the <br /> soils agricultural value. <br /> i <br /> 1 <br /> 1 <br /> • <br />
