I imagine this project will take most of this summer. I figure most of the hair roots and some of the finger roots are rotten enough to dig, if not I'll have some snips around when enough dirt is removed. I think the complete dig site will be about a ten foot circle and might go down 2 1/2 - 3'. Depending on soil, it should be a sandy based soil like most around here. That should keep me busy for a while.

That sounds like a project for sure, Do you think there will be any issue with water standing in the bottom of the pit? Could be like an abandoned quarry that hit a spring. Haha. Do you plan to spiral the haul road down the hole? Maybe 2-3' you might get away with a straight ramp in and out, but that may not be as fun.
