    A1—0 to 8 centimeters (0.0 to 3.1 inches); dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2) crushed and very dark gray (10YR 3/1), grayish brown (2.5Y 5/2) crushed, dry; very fine sandy loam; weak fine granular structure; very friable; 10.0 roots; 8 percent by volume angular 2-39-75 millimeter unspecified fragments; diffuse boundary. Lab sample # 40A30599
    A2—8 to 15 centimeters (3.1 to 5.9 inches); light yellowish brown (10YR 6/4) crushed, light gray (10YR 7/2) crushed, dry; very fine sandy loam; weak fine granular structure; very friable; 8 percent by volume angular 2-39-75 millimeter unspecified fragments; diffuse boundary. Lab sample # 40A30600
    B1—15 to 23 centimeters (5.9 to 9.1 inches); yellowish red (5YR 5/6) crushed clay loam; weak medium granular structure; friable; 8 percent by volume angular 2-39-75 millimeter unspecified fragments; diffuse boundary. Lab sample # 40A30601. few pinholes occur in horizon.
    B21t—23 to 41 centimeters (9.1 to 16.1 inches); red (2.5YR 4/8) crushed, red (2.5YR 5/6) crushed, dry; clay; 1 percent pale olive (5Y 6/3) fine mottles; moderate fine and medium granular structure; very hard, firm, very plastic; fragments; diffuse boundary. Lab sample # 40A30602. soil digs out in irregular pieces that break down readily to granules; few dark specks or accretions less than 1 mm in diameter and a few charcoal pieces present.
    B22t—41 to 64 centimeters (16.1 to 25.2 inches); red (2.5YR 4/8), red (2.5YR 5/6), dry; light gray (5Y 7/2) and 25 percent light olive gray (5Y 6/2) fine and medium mottles; fragments. Lab sample # 40A30603. this layer is comparable to the overlying one except that irregular pieces are bigger and the granular structure is less evident; dark spots and streaks, probably charcoal, are common (most of them small).
    B31t—64 to 91 centimeters (25.2 to 35.8 inches); gray (5Y 6/1) and light olive gray (5Y 6/2) and red (2.5YR 4/8), light gray (5Y 7/2), dry; clay; moderate medium granular, and moderate medium subangular blocky structure; very hard, firm, very plastic; fragments. Lab sample # 40A30604. soil digs out in coarse irregular pieces that breaks down into the structure; pattern of mottling is generally fine and medium is size and of high contrast; some coarse mottles in the horizons; few dark specks less than 1 mm in diameter are present.
    B32t—91 to 122 centimeters (35.8 to 48.0 inches); gray (5Y 6/1) and light olive gray (5Y 6/2), light gray (5Y 7/2), dry; clay; 1 percent red (2.5YR 4/8) coarse and 25 percent red (2.5YR 4/8) fine and medium mottles; massive; very hard, firm, very plastic; fragments. Lab sample # 40A30605. this layer is largely comparable to the overlying horizon but seems more firm in place.
    B33t—122 to 142 centimeters (48.0 to 55.9 inches); light gray (5Y 7/2); red (2.5YR 4/8) mottles; fragments. Lab sample # 40A30606. this is comparable to the overlying horizon in texture, structure, and consistence; the colors are also similar except that mottlings are coarser and the matrix color is slightly lighter.
    C—142 to 183 centimeters (55.9 to 72.0 inches); light gray (5Y 7/2), light gray (5Y 7/2), dry; clay; brownish yellow (10YR 6/8) and 10 percent yellowish red (5YR 5/8) fine and medium and 10 percent reddish yellow (7.5YR 6/8) fine and medium and 10 percent red (2.5YR 4/8) fine mottles; massive; very hard, firm, very plastic; fragments. Lab sample # 40A30607. pockets of very fine sand.
