In which area is the topsoil most likely to be thickest?
Topsoil naturally builds up over long periods, but can be blown or washed away. Areas with deeper topsoil are not subject to these types of erosion, and may have a very long history of vegetation (such as centuries of forest cover) which has caused the buildup, or be in an area that catches a lot of wind or water borne soil.
