A1—0 to 8 centimeters (0.0 to 3.1 inches); dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2), light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), dry; loam; weak medium subangular blocky parts to moderate very fine subangular blocky structure; slightly hard, very friable, slightly sticky, slightly plastic; fragments; slightly alkaline, pH 7.4, unspecified; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A24448
B1—8 to 13 centimeters (3.1 to 5.1 inches); dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2), light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), dry; clay loam; moderate very fine and fine subangular blocky structure; slightly hard, friable, moderately sticky, moderately plastic; 10 percent coats on faces of peds; fragments; slightly alkaline, pH 7.6, unspecified; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A24449. patchy - phpvsfiid 197208; patchy - phpvsfiid 197208
B2t—13 to 28 centimeters (5.1 to 11.0 inches); grayish brown (10YR 5/2), light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), dry; clay loam; moderate fine prismatic parts to moderate fine and medium angular blocky structure; hard, firm, very sticky, moderately plastic; coats on faces of peds; fragments; slightly alkaline, pH 7.8, unspecified; clear smooth boundary.

C1ca—28 to 48 centimeters (11.0 to 18.9 inches); grayish brown (10YR 5/2), light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), dry; loam; weak fine and medium subangular blocky structure; slightly hard, friable, moderately sticky, slightly plastic; lime masses and 3 percent fine and medium threadlike ; fragments; strong effervescence; moderately alkaline, pH 8.4, unspecified. Lab sample # 40A24451. Note: This horizon is an erratic and discontinuous one. It probably developed in the thin sandstone lands above the shale. It occupies the position that would normally be a B3ca in this series.

Lab sample # 40A24452. 35 percent shale fragments that crush easily between the fingers; fine threads and seams of secondary lime.
C3—71 to 86 centimeters (28.0 to 33.9 inches);, light gray (5YR 7/1), dry; shale, unspecified fragments; strong effervescence. Lab sample # 40A24453. Light gray, partially weathered calcareous shale.
