Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2009-07-27 jW A layer of yellowish brown natural accumulation in the eastern half of k105, under the laminiar sand and silt accumulation, f209, which seals it. In turn, f212 effectively seals two accumulations below, f213 and f214. The soil is silted clay and resists the large pick, coming off in large chunks. [Input: T727JW.j]
