To provide information on soil classification, topography and physical properties of soils in the H J Andrews Exp. Forest
Soils map of the H J Andrews Exp Forest modified from 1964 soil survey. Joel Norgren and Ted Dyrness collected additional field data in 1993 and 1994. Joel Nordgen revised the 1964 soils polygon based on these additional data. Ken Vance-Borland revised the original GIS soils layer based on Joel's interpretation, elevation contours, and the stream network. Polygon attributes were not changed.

soil series+slope+landform. The mapping unit symbols are int he following categories: a one digit number (4); a two digit number with a capital letter (12G); or a two digit number with a capital letter and a lower case letter (41Mt). The number signifies the soil series or miscellanious land type; the capital letter the slope class; and the lower case letter the landform The numbers reflect soil development. All numbers ending in zero are miscellaneous land types and should not be considered in the following discussion. The first (left) digit indicates the soil parent material as follows: 0 - alluvium 1 - glacial drift 2 - residuum/colluvium from basalt 4 - residuum/colluvium from greenish breccia 5 - residuum/colluvium from reddish breccia The capital letter in the symbol is the slope class. Slopes are classed as follows: G - gentle slope (0 - 30% slope) M - moderate slope (30 - 60% slope) V - steep slope (60+% slope) The lower case letter was added where a landform phase would materially increase the usefulness and significance of the soil map. The following symbols and landforms have been used: d - dissected slope l - landflow r - ridge t - toe slope u - uneven slope
