    Oa1—0 to 15 centimeters (0.0 to 5.9 inches); black (7.5YR 2.5/1) muck; moderate medium granular structure; very friable; 2.0 medium roots and 2.0 fine roots and 2.0 coarse roots; fragments; neutral, pH 6.8. Lab sample # 04N06554; moist when described; observed in pit, small
    Oa2—15 to 48 centimeters (5.9 to 18.9 inches); black (7.5YR 2.5/1) muck; moderate medium platy structure; very friable; 2.0 medium roots and 2.0 fine roots and 1.0 coarse roots; 15 percent by volume nonflat ? to 70-? millimeter wood fragments; neutral, pH 6.6; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # 04N06555; moist when described; observed in pit, small
