The poorly drained Hoven and Tetonka soils are in closed depressions. Jerauld soils have a thinner mollic epipedon, salts within 16 inches, and are in similar landscapes positions. Stickney soils do not have columnar structured Btn horizons and are in similar landscapes. Moderately well or somewhat poorly drained. Runoff is low or very high depending on slope.
Permeability is slow or very slow.
Somewhat poorly drained soils are in swales and receive common flooding from run-in water from adjacent slopes. A water table may be within 2 feet of the surface for short periods in the spring of the year. These soils are used for native range and cultivated crops. Small grain, alfalfa, and tame grasses are major crops. Native vegetation is mainly western wheatgrass, switchgrass, blue grama, green needlegrass, buffalograss, big bluestem, sedges, and forbs.
