    Ap1—0 to 4 centimeters (0.0 to 1.6 inches); very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2) Error; very fine and fine granular structure; loose; fragments; clear boundary. Primarily matted roots and organic material.
    Ap2—4 to 18 centimeters (1.6 to 7.1 inches); dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4) Error; moderate fine and medium granular structure; very friable; fragments; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # OSU0001250. Medium acid.
    Bt—18 to 33 centimeters (7.1 to 13.0 inches); pale brown (10YR 6/3) Error; massive, and weak subangular blocky; strong brown (7.5YR 5/8), moist, masses of oxidized iron and 11 percent medium light yellowish brown (2.5Y 6/4), moist, masses of oxidized iron; fragments; clear wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0001251. Slightly acid.
