Clay content averages 18 to 35 percent and content of fine sand or coarser averages 15 to 45 percent in the loamy part of the particle-size control section. Volume of gravel ranges from 0 to 35 percent in the loamy mantle. Volume of gravel in the stratified sandy outwash, ranges from 0 to 95 percent in individual strata, and averages from 3 to 70 percent. Volume of cobbles ranges from 0 to 5 percent in the loamy mantle and from 0 to 50 percent in individual strata in the sandy outwash. Reaction typically ranges from moderately acid to neutral in the loamy mantle but ranges to slightly alkaline in the lower part in some pedons.
Reaction is slightly alkaline or moderately alkaline in the sandy outwash.
Free carbonates occur within a depth of 10 to 20 inches and are in the lower part of the subsoil in some pedons. The Ap horizon has hue of 7.5YR or 10YR, value of 3 or 4, and chroma of 2 or 3. Some severely eroded pedons have chroma of 4 in the Ap. Uncultivated pedons have an A horizon with hue of 7.5YR or 10YR, value of 2 or 3, and chroma of 1 or 2. The Ap or A horizon is typically sandy loam, fine sandy loam, loam, silt loam, gravelly loam, or gravelly sandy loam.
