The team spent their final day of practice (Flannel Day!) looking at three pits formed in sandy and loamy eolian material draped over a glacial till landscape. The final pit of the day was an Argialboll, which was completed as a team. Everyone is in good spirits and excited to see even more soils tomorrow on contest day.

Based on our experiences this week, the contest pits should be extremely interesting. We are looking forward to the dawn, contest day, and another day exploring South Dakota soils and landscapes - it has been an excellent week of learning and growing both as individuals and as a group!
We are at one with our texture triangles.
