Shiny faces on peds are less distinct in the lower part of the B horizon. Reaction is moderately acid through slightly alkaline. The Bt horizon has few to common redoximorphic features. The BC horizon is intermediate in texture and color between the Bt and C horizons. These iron masses become larger and less bright with depth.
Reaction is neutral through moderately alkaline.
The C horizon has hue of 10YR or 2.5Y, value of 5 through 7 and 4 through 6 moist, with chroma of 2 through 4. It is dominantly silt loam but ranges to include clay loam, loam and silty clay loam. In some pedons, calcium carbonates are in the form of concretions or mycelial-like filaments and coatings on cleavage planes. Reaction is neutral through moderately alkaline. These are the Barbert , Crestmeade , Edina , Filbert , Fillmore , Massie and Triplett series.
