I live in the Pacific Northwest. It rains a lot here. Yesterday I learned that digging after a few days rain is MESSY. I knew it would be but not on this scale. Do you guys have any tips and tricks to dig without making a huge mess?

In case you are wondering I dug holes in a forest and did not make messes of public spaces.

Put the mud on a small plastic sheet then refill the hole with it.
