    A2—5 to 15 centimeters (2.0 to 5.9 inches); very dark gray (10YR 3/1), dark gray (10YR 4/1), dry; weak prismatic, and subangular blocky parts to strong very fine and fine granular structure; hard, friable, moderately sticky, moderately plastic; 0.5 roots; fragments; slight effervescence, by hcl, unspecified; clear irregular boundary. Lab sample # 40A00876
    Bw—15 to 25 centimeters (5.9 to 9.8 inches); very dark gray (2.5Y 3/1) and very dark grayish brown (2.5Y 3/2), dark gray (2.5Y 4/1) and grayish brown (2.5Y 5/2), dry; weak coarse prismatic parts to weak angular blocky parts to granular structure; hard, friable, moderately sticky, moderately plastic; 0.5 roots; fragments; strong effervescence, by hcl, unspecified irregular boundary. Lab sample # 40A00877. Sampled with this horizon were its thick tongues and pendants extending to depths as great as 21 inches. Excluded from this sample were the pinnacles of the B3ca horizon protruding into and through this horizon.

Lab sample # 40A00878. Sampled with this horizon were its pyramid and pinnacle-like protrusions into and through the above horizon to depths as shallow as 6 inches below the surface. Excluded from this sample were the tongues and pendants of the B2 horizon that extend into and to the base of this horizon.
