    A1—0 to 10 centimeters (0.0 to 3.9 inches); very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2), light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), dry; silty clay loam; moderate fine granular structure; soft, very friable; fragments; noneffervescent; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A29509
    B1—10 to 15 centimeters (3.9 to 5.9 inches); dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2), grayish brown (10YR 5/2), dry; silty clay loam; moderate and strong very fine subangular blocky structure; slightly hard, friable; clay films; fragments; noneffervescent; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A29510. Thin continuous clay films; the soil aggregates in this horizon are weakly coated with light gray.; continuous - phpvsfiid 187945; continuous - phpvsfiid 187945
    B21t—15 to 36 centimeters (5.9 to 14.2 inches); dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2), grayish brown (10YR 5/2), dry; silty clay; moderate and strong medium prismatic parts to strong fine angular blocky structure; extremely hard, very firm; fragments; noneffervescent; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A29511
    B22t—36 to 46 centimeters (14.2 to 18.1 inches); light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), dry; silty clay; moderate and strong fine and medium prismatic parts to strong fine angular blocky structure; extremely hard, very firm; clay films; fragments; strong effervescence; gradual smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A29512. There is no visible segregation of lime; thin continuous clay films.; continuous - phpvsfiid 187946; continuous - phpvsfiid 187946
    B31ca—46 to 74 centimeters (18.1 to 29.1 inches); light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), very pale brown (10YR 7/3), dry; silty clay loam; weak and moderate medium prismatic parts to moderate fine subangular blocky structure; very hard, friable; 10 percent clay films; 3 percent carbonate concretions; fragments; strong effervescence; gradual smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A29513. This is a moderate lime horizon containing many large soft calcium carbonate concretions 1/4 to 1/8 inch in diameter; few very thin very patchy tonhautchen.; patchy - phpvsfiid 187943; patchy - phpvsfiid 187943
