The soils are in a cool, subhumid continental climate with annual precipitation ranging from 16 to 20 inches. The frost-free season is about 40 to 75 days. These are the competing Foxcreek soils and the Tonks , Zohner , and Zundell soils. Tonks soils are somewhat poorly drained and are calcareous at depths of 10 to 20 inches. Zohner and Zundell soils have carbonatic mineralogy.
Vegetation is mainly willows, sedges, rushes, wet meadow grasses, wiregrass, and clovers.
Poorly drained mountain valleys of southeastern Idaho. The soils are moderately extensive. Teton County, Idaho, 1975.
