    Ap—0 to 18 centimeters (0.0 to 7.1 inches); brown (10YR 4/3), yellowish brown (10YR 5/4), dry; silt loam; moderate medium subangular blocky structure; friable; 2.0 very fine and fine roots; fragments; slightly acid, pH 6.1, hellige-truog; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # 93P01274
    Bt1—18 to 58 centimeters (7.1 to 22.8 inches); dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4) silt loam; moderate fine and medium subangular blocky structure; friable; 1.0 very fine and fine roots; fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.8, hellige-truog; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # 93P01275. A compaction zone is present at the boundary with the Ap horizon.
    Bt2—58 to 109 centimeters (22.8 to 42.9 inches); dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4) silt loam; 15 percent yellowish brown (10YR 5/8) medium prominent mottles; weak coarse subangular blocky structure; friable; 1.0 very fine and fine roots; fragments; strongly acid, pH 5.4, hellige-truog; gradual smooth boundary. Lab sample # 93P01276
    Bt3—109 to 137 centimeters (42.9 to 53.9 inches); dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4) silt loam; 15 percent yellowish brown (10YR 5/8) coarse prominent mottles; weak coarse subangular blocky structure; friable; 1.0 very fine and fine roots; fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.8, hellige-truog; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # 93P01277
    BC—137 to 173 centimeters (53.9 to 68.1 inches); yellowish brown (10YR 5/4) silt loam; 1 percent yellowish brown (10YR 5/6) medium distinct mottles; weak coarse subangular blocky structure; friable; 1.0 very fine and fine roots; fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.8, hellige-truog; clear smooth boundary. Lab sample # 93P01278. Clay concentrations occur on horizontal strata lines.
    C1—173 to 188 centimeters (68.1 to 74.0 inches); dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4) silt loam; weak coarse platy structure; friable; very fine and fine roots; fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.8, hellige-truog; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # 93P01279. Platy structure is due to stratification.
    C2—188 to 196 centimeters (74.0 to 77.2 inches); dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4) silt loam; 30 percent dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/6) coarse distinct mottles; structureless massive; friable; very fine and fine roots; fragments; moderately acid, pH 6.0, hellige-truog. Lab sample # 93P01280. Stratification appears to be undeveloped loess deposits of fine strata.
