These are the Dilman , Doct and Furniss series. Dilman and Furniss soils have a mean annual soil temperature of more than 32 degrees F. Doct soils have bedrock at depths of 20 to 40 inches. The Almont soils are in basins and depressions above timber line or in seepage areas on slopes above timber line. Slope gradients range from 0 to as much as 30 or more percent in some areas. They formed in moderately fine textured parent materials weathered from platy shales and limestones.
