    Aoo—0 to 4 centimeters (0.0 to 1.6 inches); fragments. Lab sample # 40A29524. An organic mat made up mostly of pine needles. Horizon not sampled.
    A2—4 to 9 centimeters (1.6 to 3.5 inches); grayish brown (10YR 5/2), light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), dry; loam; weak and moderate fine platy parts to moderate fine granular structure; soft, very friable; fragments; noneffervescent; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A29525
    B2t—9 to 27 centimeters (3.5 to 10.6 inches); brown (7.5YR 4/4), brown (7.5YR 5/4), dry; clay loam; moderate medium subangular blocky parts to moderate and strong very fine subangular blocky structure; hard, friable; clay films on faces of peds; 20 percent by volume 2-39-75 millimeter unspecified fragments; noneffervescent; gradual smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A29526. continuous - phpvsfiid 187697; continuous - phpvsfiid 187697
    B3ca—27 to 37 centimeters (10.6 to 14.6 inches); brown (10YR 4/3), grayish brown (10YR 5/2), dry; gravelly loam; weak medium subangular blocky parts to moderate fine granular structure; slightly hard, very friable; 1 percent carbonate concretions; 30 percent by volume 2-39-75 millimeter unspecified fragments; violent effervescence; gradual smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A29527. This is a weak horizon of lime accumulation with some visible lime occurring as concretions and as coatings on the gravel.
    Cca—37 to 47 centimeters (14.6 to 18.5 inches); light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), very pale brown (10YR 8/2), dry; stony clay; massive; slightly hard, very friable; 50 percent by volume 250-425-600 millimeter unspecified fragments; violent effervescence; gradual smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A29528. This is a prominent horizon of lime accumulation with visible lime occurring in finely divided forms.
    D—47 to 62 centimeters (18.5 to 24.4 inches); limestone, unspecified fragments. Partially weathered and fractured bedrock limestone of Pennsylvanian age. This horizon was not sampled.
