7. Cryoll landscape
Lemhi Co., ID

Argicryolls are in the foreground, under a sagebrush and Idaho fescue habitat. These soils are formed in CaCO3-rich glacial outwash derived from the limestone mountains nearby. The cool climate and short growing season restrict the use of these soils to primarily rangeland.
