Since Iā€™ve been running my mouth lately, thought Iā€™d share with the community that Iā€™m an honest enthusiast. Iā€™ve held off on exploring this one due to the shear enormity of it, itā€™s a monster, intimidating to say the least. This one has been hit hard in the past so the approach has to be thought out to avoid the over burden. Today was day one, many more to come for sure. I salute the diggers out there, the method takes itā€™s toll on the body however, the result is oftentimes rewarding.

Was it dug a long time ago and did they push all the dirt over the edge? If anyone can clean it out you can. You are already showing what they missed. Have fun they are a lot of work but some of the funnest hunting I have ever had.

It was dug a long time ago and the sift piles are inside. Most of the digging appears to have been done against the back, sifted in the center. The dirt under the sift piles is virgin.

It is like powder in those piles. When you hit big roots keep digging, lol. I take a probe to see what was dug and what was missed.
