Sounds like a dump. Burn what you can. Some melted ones are cool sometimes. Wire is a pain. Cutters would be the way to attack that stuff. Sounds like fun, a challenge so to speak.

Thicker gloves and brushes are also a must, that ash coats things and you think it's more diet, but then crunch, it was glass.

Some guys dig with a stick. I have seen antlers, screwdriver, stout stainless steel spoon. They all work. Dig carefully until you get in the trash zone then just slow and steady. I like to trench it. I dig a long hole ramped down. I feel safer than in a hole. Especially when I am alone. Just my own weird way.

I have a whole toolbox of diggers. From old spoons and butter knives to air puffers and hammers

Well I believe I have a good bit of work ahead. I have 5 test holes that produced unbroken and the deepest one is just over three feet.

The Best Jumbo Peanut Butter Jars are the ones shaped like a Elephant & the green ones. LEON.
I've never seen either in person and I have a soft spot for green anything. It's my favorite
