I live in the Mission Valley of Western Montana and it used to be part of glacial Lame Missoula. We have boulders the size of Volkswagens on our place. Before I bought I read the soil reports that siad 85-90% of the rocks were 3.5 to 4.5 inches. I wish that was true. I think 10-15% are 3.5 -4.5 inches and the rest are bigger. When I broke the ground for my wife's garden, part wat through plowing I noticed that I had to apply more throttle to the tractor to plow at the same speed. I lifted the plow to investigate and a triangular portion about 1.5 inches on a side was missing from the point of the share. It probably struck a boulder and broke off. I finished the plowing with the broken share. They don't make replacement shares for the old Detroit plow I was using. Since I'm a rancher( that's a guy who never plows anymore ground then his wife can take of) it's just as well.
