    Ap—0 to 18 centimeters (0.0 to 7.1 inches); dark brown (10YR 3/3) gravelly loam; moderate fine and medium granular structure; friable; 21.0 fine roots; fragments; strongly acid, pH 5.4, unspecified; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # 40A02153. Roots are of herbaceous plants and grasses.
    B21—18 to 33 centimeters (7.1 to 13.0 inches); yellowish brown (10YR 5/4) and dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4) gravelly coarse sandy loam; moderate fine granular structure; friable; 3.0 fine roots; fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.6, unspecified; clear wavy boundary. Lab sample # 40A02154
    B22—33 to 61 centimeters (13.0 to 24.0 inches); brown (7.5YR 4/4) very gravelly coarse sandy loam; moderate fine granular structure; friable; 3.0 fine roots; fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.6, unspecified; clear irregular boundary. Lab sample # 40A02155
    B23—61 to 97 centimeters (24.0 to 38.2 inches); dark brown (7.5YR 3/4) very gravelly coarse sandy loam; weak fine and medium subangular blocky structure; friable, moderately sticky, slightly plastic; 3.0 fine roots; 3 percent very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2) clay bodies and 3 percent reddish brown (5YR 4/3) clay bodies and 3 percent brown (10YR 4/3) clay bodies; fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.8, unspecified; clear irregular boundary. Lab sample # 40A02156
    C1—97 to 142 centimeters (38.2 to 55.9 inches); dark brown (10YR 3/3) Error; single grain; loose; fine roots; fragments; gradual boundary. Lab sample # 40A02157. The sand among the gravel is free of carbonate but carbonates coat the underside of gravel and larger stones; few soft weathered gravel and stone remnants.
    C2—142 to 183 centimeters (55.9 to 72.0 inches); dark brown (10YR 3/3) Error; single grain; loose; silt coats on sand and gravel and clay films on sand and gravel; fragments. Lab sample # 40A02158. The lower surfaces of gravel and stones have thick deposits of light gray carbonates and the soil mass effervesces.
