When navigating rough terrain, understanding soil types is crucial for successful operations. Here’s a quick overview of the main soil types:
1. Sandy Soil
Characteristics: Loose with larger particles, sandy soil drains well but lacks stability.
2. Clay Soil
Characteristics: Dense and sticky when wet, clay retains moisture but becomes hard when dry.
3. Loamy Soil
Characteristics: A balanced mix of sand, silt, and clay, loamy soil is nutrient-rich and stable.
4. Silt Soil
Characteristics: Fine particles that hold moisture but can compact easily.
5. Rocky Soil
Characteristics: Contains stones and boulders, making it challenging to work with.
Understanding soil types is essential for transporting heavy loads. Each type presents unique challenges that require specific strategies and equipment.
