    Ap—0 to 18 centimeters (0.0 to 7.1 inches);, dark brown (10YR 3/3), moist; loam; weak fine granular structure; very friable; very fine roots and 21.0 coarse roots; fragments; very slight effervescence; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # 01P01085
    Bt—18 to 25 centimeters (7.1 to 9.8 inches);, brown (10YR 4/3), moist; loam; weak medium subangular blocky structure; friable; very fine roots and 21.0 coarse roots; fragments; very slight effervescence; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # 01P01086. Bt has evidence of clay movement, may be clay films bridging sand grains and around pores.
