The depth to carbonates is 20 to 40 inches. The mollic epipedon typically is 10 to 20 inches in thickness, but is as thin as 7 inches in pedons that are 20 inches to the base of the argillic horizon. The particle-size control section averages between 25 and 35 percent clay. Sand content averages less than 8 percent throughout the series control section. It typically is silt loam, but some eroded or severely eroded pedons are silty clay loam.
Reaction ranges from moderately acid to slightly alkaline.
The BA and Bt horizons have hue of 10YR or 7.5YR, value of 3 to 5, and chroma of 3 to 6. Texture dominantly is silty clay loam, but some subhorizons are silt loam. Reaction ranges from moderately acid to neutral. It is silt loam or silty clay loam and averages less than 30 percent clay. Reaction is slightly acid to moderately alkaline and contains carbonates in some pedons.
