    A—0 to 4 centimeters (0.0 to 1.6 inches); very dark brown (10YR 2/2) Error; moderate fine granular structure; very friable; fragments; abrupt smooth boundary. Horizons 1a and 2a were taken from a nearby forested area on this same soil and landscape unit.
    Ap1—0 to 18 centimeters (0.0 to 7.1 inches); dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2); weak fine and medium granular, and moderate granular structure; friable; fragments; clear broken boundary. Lab sample # OSU0011236
    E—4 to 8 centimeters (1.6 to 3.1 inches); brown (10YR 4/3) Error; weak medium granular structure; friable; fragments; abrupt smooth boundary. Below 3?, horizon is similar to the B2 at 10-13?.
    Ap2—18 to 25 centimeters (7.1 to 9.8 inches); 50 percent dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2) and 50 percent yellowish brown (10YR 5/6) Error; weak medium subangular blocky structure; friable; fragments; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0011237
    Bw—25 to 33 centimeters (9.8 to 13.0 inches); yellowish brown (10YR 5/6) Error; moderate medium subangular blocky structure; firm; 1 percent fine faint light yellowish brown (10YR 6/4), moist, masses of reduced iron; fragments; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0011238
    33 to 38 centimeters (13.0 to 15.0 inches); pale brown (10YR 6/3) Error; weak medium subangular blocky structure; firm; 33 percent medium distinct strong brown (7.5YR 5/8), moist, masses of oxidized iron; fragments; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0011239. Horizon varies from 1 to 6? and forms a thin cap over underlying prisms and occurs also as protrusions into lower horizon.
    38 to 58 centimeters (15.0 to 22.8 inches); yellowish brown (10YR 5/4) Error; weak very coarse prismatic, and weak platy structure; very firm; prominent light gray (2.5Y 7/2), moist, sand coats; 5 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # OSU0011240. Moderate to strongly developed fragipan; sand grains in prism coats are white and appear unstained; prisms are 6-12? across.
    58 to 79 centimeters (22.8 to 31.1 inches); dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4) Error; weak very coarse prismatic, and weak platy structure; very firm; distinct light gray (2.5Y 7/2), moist, sand coats; 5 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # OSU0011241. Occasional protrusion of 2.5Y 7/2 7/4 into ped interiors; prisms are 8-12? across.
    79 to 99 centimeters (31.1 to 39.0 inches); dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4) Error; weak very coarse prismatic, and weak platy structure; very firm; distinct light gray (2.5Y 7/2), moist, sand coats; 5 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # OSU0011242. Occasional protrusion of 2.5Y 7/2 7/4 into ped interiors; prisms are 8-12? across.
