Through the use of topographic maps, soil survey reports,
and glacial deposit maps, as well as on-site observations, the
ten major soil regions, as suggested by F. D. Hole, were investigated
to determine the relationship between surface landforms,
glacial deposits, and the occurrence of wetlands.
Using the data and examples offered in this work, anyone
can learn the method needed to make reasonable predictions
about soil drainage conditions anywhere in the state. These
predictions would be just as accurate during abnormally dry
years.
