Average clay content typically is between 6 to 15 percent but ranges up to 18 percent in the particle-size control section. Structure is weak to moderate, fine or coarse subangular blocky. The BC horizon,where present, has hue of 7.5YR or 10YR, value of 5 through 8 and chroma of 4 through 8. It is sandy loam, fine sandy loam, or loam in the fine- earth fraction. The C horizon has hue of 7.5YR or 10YR, value of 5 or 6, and chroma of 4 through 6.
Texture is sandy loam or loamy sand in the fine-earth fraction.
Bedrock is gray to brown sandstone of varying hardness and is commonly fractured without displacement. The Annisquam , Berks , Blasdell , Brownsville , Calvin , Cardiff , Chenango , Hazleton , Highsplint , Itswoot , Lippitt , Manlius , Oquaga , Parker , Remote , Sylco , Tunkhannock , Warwick , Watt , and Wyoming series are in the same family. Annisquam soils have Cd horizons of dense glacial till. Berks, Cardiff, and Manlius soils have sola that contain less sand. Blasdell,Brownsville, Chenango, Hazleton, Highsplint, Itswoot, Parker, Remote, Tunkhannock, and Warwick soils are deeper than 40 inches to bedrock.
