The Ap horizon has hue of 10YR, value of 2 to 4,and chroma of 1 to 3. The B horizon has hue of 7.5YR to 2.5Y, value of 310 6, and chroma of 2 to 6. It ranges from loamy fine sand to coarse sand. The C horizon has hue of 10YR to 5Y, value of 4 tot and chroma of 1 to 4. It ranges from coarse sand to loamy fine sand. Enosburg series The Enosburg series consists of deep, poorly draired soils on glacial outwash plains and deltas.
