Reaction ranges from slightly acid to moderately alkaline. The C horizons range from clay to weakly tuffaceous siltstone and mudstone. Colors are olive, yellow or brown and in hues 2.5Y and 5Y, value of 5 to 7, chroma of 2 and 3 with few to common mottles in shades of brown, yellow, and olive. Masses and pitted concretions of calcium carbonate range from none to few. Masses of gypsum crystals range from none to few.
Reaction ranges from moderately acid to moderately alkaline.
The C horizon commonly contains less calcium carbonate with increasing depth. These are the Burkeville and Redco series in the same family. Similar soils are Raylake , and Wiergate . Burkeville and Wiergate soils are very deep and have colors in hues of 10YR, to 5Y. Raylake soils are more acid and lack carbonates. Redco soils are very deep.
