    BCtx—152 to 188 centimeters (59.8 to 74.0 inches); light olive brown (2.5Y 5/3) gravelly loam; weak medium platy structure; very firm; 0.0 roots; very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2), moist, coats on faces of peds; fragments; neutral, pH 6.6, unspecified; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # 40A01911; observed in pit, small. Few widely spaced vertical cleavage planes coated with gray (N 6/) silty clay and bounded by 1/4 inch of strong brown (7.5YR 5/6) clay loam extended downward from prisms of horizons above.; discontinuous - phpvsfiid 1563078; discontinuous - phpvsfiid 1563078
    Cx—188 to 208 centimeters (74.0 to 81.9 inches); grayish brown (2.5Y 5/2) gravelly clay loam; strong medium platy structure; firm; 0.0 roots; black (10YR 2/1), moist, coats on faces of peds; fragments; slight effervescence. Lab sample # 40A01912; observed in pit, small. Seen only to 82 inches in the dug pit, but in the deep road cut nearby, this oxidized but unleached horizon extends to unoxidized till at an estimated depth of 30 feet. The dark coats in the plates extend to an estimated 15 feet but decrease with depth below 9 feet.
    2Cd—1219 to 1250 centimeters (479.9 to 492.1 inches); dark gray (5Y 4/1) gravelly loam; weak medium platy structure; very firm; fragments; slight effervescence. Lab sample # 40A01913; observed in cut. This is believed to be the unoxidized till, like that from which the soil has formed, though it could be an earlier deposit.
