The yellow loess has dark brown spots & streaks, & some grey streaks.
Transition to gray at middle is not so sharp. Though quite abrupt, but at S. end it is very sharp.
The yellow loess has fewer fossils, & Suc. oblique & S. avana predominates.  The former is very rare in grey loess.
Cut 1 is evidently same as upper, yellow, loess in cut 2.
Took photos 5, 6, 15 & 16 with makers & 33 + 34 showing cut looking N.
All samples are from near B.
