Dad used to talk about peat fires burning all winter, leaving holes underground that might collapse when going across with a tractor. Last fall, after spending a couple summers clearing brush on 9 acres of peat, I had four piles to burn. Lit them up, relit one the next morning. Within the next two weeks we had two inches of rain, and at the end of that time, one pile was still smoldering, and the ground was white ash, over a foot deep. Got the backhoe and dug alongside, five feet deep got me through the peat and into water. Pushed the ash in, then rocks, and closed the hole. Next morning- no more smoke! Final cleanup of the peat gave me one more pile, but that will be pushed up onto the cornfield, buried, and burned.
