The depth to till ranges from 20 to 40 inches. The depth to carbonates is less than 40 inches and generally is a few inches less than the thickness of the base of the argillic horizon. The particle-size control section averages between 25 and 35 percent clay. The Ap or A horizon has hue of 10YR, value of 2 or 3, and chroma of 1 to 3. It is silt loam or silty clay loam.
Reaction ranges from moderately acid to neutral.
Some pedons have a BA horizon. The Bt horizon has hue of 10YR, value of 3 to 5, and chroma of 1 to 6. It is silt loam or silty clay loam. Average clay content ranges from 25 to 35 percent. Low chroma is associated with low value.
