Abstract	The Lawrence Memorial Grassland Preserve, located in Wasco County, Oregon, exhibits a wide variety of soil mounds and patterned ground features. The size, shape, and distribution of several elements of this peculiar landscape were analyzed with a detailed map, field observations, and statistical procedures. Common soil mound shapes are circular, polygonal, and elongated. These mounds display a great diversity in size as well. Patterned ground features such as sorted stripes and nets, are also widely distributed and varied. Many geomorphic processes and environmental conditions, including frost sorting, geologic setting, soils, erosion (both wind and water), and biologic activity, may contribute to the formation of these features.
