    Ap—0 to 25 centimeters (0.0 to 9.8 inches); brown (7.5YR 4/2) loam; weak fine and medium granular structure; firm; 21.0 fine roots; 21.0 fine and 21.0 tubular pores; 2-76-150 millimeter unspecified fragments and 8 percent by volume 2-39-75 millimeter unspecified fragments; slightly acid, pH 6.2, unspecified; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A02107. Many wormholes.
    B2—25 to 41 centimeters (9.8 to 16.1 inches); reddish brown (5YR 4/4) very fine sandy loam; weak fine subangular blocky parts to weak fine and medium granular structure; firm; 21.0 fine and medium and 3.0 coarse pores; 2-76-150 millimeter unspecified fragments and 8 percent by volume 2-39-75 millimeter unspecified fragments; strongly acid, pH 5.2, unspecified; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # 40A02108
    A'2—41 to 51 centimeters (16.1 to 20.1 inches); reddish brown (5YR 4/3) and reddish brown (5YR 4/4), reddish brown (5YR 5/3), dry; fine gravelly fine sandy loam; weak coarse platy structure; very firm; 0.5 fine roots; 21.0 fine and medium pores; fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.6, unspecified; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # 40A02109. When dry contains many fine 5YR 3/4 bodies.
    B'x—51 to 97 centimeters (20.1 to 38.2 inches); dark reddish brown (5YR 3/4) loam; massive; firm; 0.5 medium and coarse and 21.0 fine pores; 8 percent by volume 2-39-75 millimeter unspecified fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.8, unspecified; clear wavy boundary. Lab sample # 40A02110. Fine bodies of sandier material of similar color with few disintegrated greenish-colored shale spots; occasionally clayey and sandy inclusions.
