The Lizzant series consist of very deep, well drained, moderately rapidly permeable soils that formed in alluvium and colluvium derived from sedimentary rocks.
Lizzant soil are on alluvial fans and hillsides.
Slopes are 4 to 60 percent. The soils are dry in the moisture control section for 45 to 65 consecutive days between June 21 and September 21 and are moist for 65 to 75 days during the 120 days after the winter solstice. The calcium carbonate equivalent in the series control section is more than 40 percent including the carbonates in rock fragments less than 20 mm. in diameter. The mollic epipedon is 8 to 16 inches thick. Depth to the calcic horizon ranges from 13 to 26 inches.
