I buried a 4 wheel drive crab steer RT crane once so deep you had to step down into cab. It was like some kind of quick sand! The spot were I did this now stands a relatively large correctional facility. Parts of the building are experiencing structural problems. Another time some 45 years ago I used to do some custom plowing, a lot of night work. So going along like a house afire when felt like the ground opened up underneath me. Had to leave it till morning. Turned out there was a spring in the middle of field that farmer forgot to tell me to go around. I just forget how deep it was in, but I remember a lot of shoveling to get the plow unhooked! The best one of all was up in a little spot called Mead just outside of Hearst Ontario. We were tearing out a closed down sawmill and the lamebrained watchman we had hired decided to take a trip with a big cat loader down a winter only muskeg trail into the bush. He kept trying to get out with the bucket but it just kept sinking. Couple of the local guys that had some big equipment refused to go in and even try to get it out. He finally got a guy with a huge excavator and what he called lily pads that he kept moving along to go in and he did get him out in the end. When I asked the watchman what the heck he was thinking to drive loader in there claimed he was chasing a bear, but thats another story!
