Soil reaction ranges from extremely acid to slightly acid in the surface layer, and very strongly acid to neutral below the surface layer. The iron nodules, soft siltstone and shale fragments range from 0 to 2 percent in the upper part of the solum and 0 to 20 percent in the lower part of the solum and 30 to 65 percent in the C horizon. The A horizon has hue of 10YR, value of 3 to 6 and chroma of 2 to 4. Texture is silt loam, loam or silty clay loam. The BA horizon has hue of 10YR, 7.5YR or 2.5Y, value of 4 or 5 and chroma of 3 to 6.
Texture is silt loam, loam, or silty clay loam.
Some pedons have few to many silt coatings. The Bt horizon has hue of 7.5YR, 10YR, 2.5Y or 5Y, value of 4 to 6 and chroma of 3 to 6. Texture is silt loam or silty clay loam in fine earth fraction. The BC horizon, where present, has hue of 10YR, 2.5Y or 5Y, value of 4 to 6 and chroma of 3 to 6. It is silt loam or silty clay loam in the fine earth fraction.
