Oi—0 to 5 centimeters (0.0 to 2.0 inches); slightly decomposed plant material; low excavation difficulty; fragments; noneffervescent, by hcl, 1n; abrupt smooth boundary.; observed in pit, small. There were two 6 X 6" subangular basalt cobbles in the A horizon at or close to profile described on the north sidewall of the backhoe pit. Otherwise, there were no cobbles and no stones anywhere else in the top 4" of the mineral soil profile at the backhoe pit. Two quick step transects done perpendicular to the backhoe pit area yielded only one, and then two small stones stepped in 100 steps, so this type pedon area for the new proposed Stutler series is nonstony. Unfortunately, the Stutler areas not far away to the east across HY 195 are predominately very stony on the surface, and so the surface stoniness phase or lack thereof can vary quite a bit depending on where one is at and may not be able to be mapped in separate surface stoniness phase map units.

A discontinuous, 1/2" wide, 10YR 4/3 moist wavy horizontal lamellae was noted within the 124 to 130 cm depth range when the profile here was sampled in May. This lamellae is the source of the 4% patchy clay films on rock fragments in this horizon. The lamellae was coated on rock fragments primarily because about 85% of the volume for this horizon was estimated to be rock fragments. The lamellae here evidently was also discontinuous heading into the profile as no lamellae was noted by DLW or other persons at the review in September. Since there was only 1 discontinuous lamellae noticed in the entire pit that did not continue farther into the profile, the 102-157 cm 3C horizon is NOT considered to be and E & Bt horizon by this author. The lamellae is noted only because it was quite evident when the profile was sampled, and because it is not unusual to find an isolated, stray lamellae in a Stutler pedon.; discontinuous - phpvsfiid 20937; patchy - phpvsfiid 20938; patchy - phpvsfiid 20939; patchy - phpvsfiid 20940; discontinuous - phpvsfiid 20937; patchy - phpvsfiid 20938; patchy - phpvsfiid 20939; patchy - phpvsfiid 20940
