Bg1—30 to 41 centimeters (11.8 to 16.1 inches); black (10YR 2/1) Error; moderate medium angular blocky structure; firm; faint clay films; 1 percent medium distinct very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2), moist, masses of oxidized iron; fragments; slightly alkaline, pH 7.4; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # OSU0012635. Horizon varies from 4 to 5 inches thick.; discontinuous - phpvsfiid 978256; discontinuous - phpvsfiid 978256
Bg2—41 to 53 centimeters (16.1 to 20.9 inches); olive gray (5Y 4/2) Error; strong medium and coarse angular blocky structure; firm; prominent clay films; 33 percent medium prominent dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4), moist, masses of oxidized iron and 33 percent medium prominent light olive brown (2.5Y 5/6), moist, masses of oxidized iron; fragments; slightly alkaline, pH 7.4; abrupt smooth boundary.

Lab sample # OSU0012637. Numerous partly weathered limestone fragments. Horizon varies from 7 to 8 inches thick. Tongues of this horizon extend into the BC horizon.
