Calcareous material, where present, follows the wavy upper boundary of the C horizon but extends in the AC3 in some microknolls. It is medium acid through mildly alkaline. Moist values are 4 in more than 50 percent of the pedon. Mottles range from few to many and are faint to distinct in shades of gray, brown, olive, and yellow. Reaction ranges from medium acid to mildly alkaline.
Mottles are few to many faint to distinct shades of gray, brown, olive, or yellow.
