Thickness of the silty mantle ranges from 13 to 30 inches. Rock fragments less than 3 inches in diameter range from 0 to 25 percent in the silty mantle and 5 to 30 percent in the underlying till. Reaction ranges from strongly acid through neutral in the surface layer, subsurface layer, and the upper part of the subsoil, moderately acid through neutral in the Bt and slightly acid through moderately alkaline in the substratum. The A or Ap horizon has hue of 10YR or 2.5Y, value of 3 through 5 and chroma of 2 or 3. Texture of the fine-earth fraction is silt loam or very fine sandy loam.
Structure is very weak through moderate, fine or medium granular.
The Bw horizon has hue of 10YR or 2.5Y, value of 4 or 5 and chroma of 3 or 4. Texture of the fine-earth fraction is silt loam or very fine sandy loam. Structure is weak or moderate granular or subangular blocky. Some pedons have a BA horizon. The E horizon has hue of 2.5Y or 5Y, value of 5 or 6 and chroma of 2 or 3 and has redox concentrations.
