Most soils should provide good trafficability for most military vehicles; swamplands classified as intrafficable may prove to be trafficable; cultivated soils provide better trafficability than adjacent virgin tracts of same soil; this increase in trafficability is due both to densification of top soil and to better surface drainage; growing of hay appears to stabilize soil.
