Solum thickness, depth to the base of the argillic horizon, and depth to the lithic contact ranges from 20 to 40 inches, but is typically 20 to 30 inches. The clay content of the particle-size control section averages between 18 to 27 percent. Partially weathered limestone or dolostone fragments of local origin and crystalline gravel of glacial origin are the dominant rock fragments. It is loamy sand, loamy fine sand, sandy loam, or fine sandy loam. Rock fragments range from l to 14 percent by volume.
Reaction ranges from slightly acid to slightly alkaline.
Some pedons have an E or BA horizon. Where present, the BE horizon has hue of 10YR or 7.5YR, value of 4 to 6, and chroma of 3 to 6. It is fine sandy loam, sandy loam, loamy sand, sandy clay loam, clay loam, or their gravelly analogues. Rock fragments range from 1 to 15 percent by volume. Reaction ranges from slightly acid to slightly alkaline.
